know
the

at
all.So
I
started
giving

directions.But
I
didn’t
really
know
where
we
were.So
we
got
seriously
lost.
W:You
could
have
called.
M:I
know
I
could
have.But
finally
we
asked
someone
where
we
were.Guess

up.
W:I
don’t
know.Where?
M:When

we

a
dozen

don’t
know
how

I
do.
M:What?
W:You
were
too
busy
looking
at
Joseph,and
you
weren’t

to
the

the

go

with
him
to
buy
groceries,you’ll
get
lost
for
even
longer.Maybe
six
hours
or
so.Hah,hah!See?I
guessed
right.You
weren’t
watching
the
road
at
all.
M:No,I
wasn’t.It’s
kind
of
hard
to
watch
the
road
when
Joseph
is
behind
the
wheel.

听第10段材料,回答第17至20题。
My
first
job
was
in
Jessif,in
the
east
of
Poland.I
was
promised
that
I
wasn’t
going
to
have
to
teach
any
beginners
or
any
little
children
because
it
was
my
first
job.I
was
promptly
given
the
beginners.On
my
first
day
of
teaching
I
was
given
a
book
which
said,“Ah!Go
into
the
classroom
and
say
hello
to
the
children
and
they’ll
all
say
hello
back
to
you
and
wave.”I
walked
into
a
class
of
five
four-year
olds,followed
by
all
their
mothers
and
grandmothers
and
I
said“Hello”
and
they
all
burst
into
tears.I
spent
half
the
lesson
trying
to
get
them
to
say
“Hello”
to
each
other
and
stop
them
from
crying
while
all
the
grandmothers
stood
around
and
stared
at
me.I
finally
finished
off
my
singing
HappyPrincessSong,all
on
my
own,with
crying
children
to
accompany
me.It
was
one
of
the
worst
days
of
my
life.I
could
feel
the
same
with
all
the
children
though,because
I
wanted
to
sit
on
the
floor
and
cry
with
them
by
the
end
of
it.Then
I
realized
that
teaching
kids
was
never
going
to
be
my
career.I
had
some
other
classes
as
well
but
quit
soon
after
that
and
moved
onto
adults
who
cry
slightly
less.Yeah,that
was
my
first
teaching
experience.Not
the
best.

B
My
wife
Laura
and
I
were
on
the
beach,with
three
of
our
children,taking
pictures
of
shore
birds
near
our
home
in
Alaska
when
we
spotted
a
bear.The
bear
was
thin
and
small,moving
aimlessly.
Just
a
few
minutes
later,I
heard
my
daughter
shouting,“Dad!The
bear
is
right
behind
us!”
An
aggressive
bear
will
usually
rush
forward
to
frighten
away
its
enemy
but
would
suddenly
stop
at
the
last
minute.This
one
was
silent
and
its
ears
pinned
back—the
sign
of
an
animal
that
is
going
in
for
the
kill.And
it
was
a
cold
April
day.The
bear
behaved
abnormally,probably
because
of
hunger.
I
held
my
camera
tripod
(三脚架)in
both
hands
to
form
a
barrier
as
the
bear
rushed
into
me.Its
huge
head
was
level
with
my
chest
and
shoulders,and
the
tripod
stuck
across
its
mouth.It
bit
down
and
I
found
myself
supporting
its
weight.I
knew
I
would
not
be
able
to
hold
it
for
long.
Even
so,this
was
a
fight
I
had
to
win:
I
was
all
that
stood
between
the
bear
and
my
family,who
would
stand
little
chance
of
running
faster
than
a
brown
bear.
The
bear
hit
at
the
camera,cutting
it
off
the
tripod.I
raised
my
left
arm
to
protect
my
face;the
beast
held
tightly
on
the
tripod
and
pressed
it
into
my
side.My
arm
could
not
move,and
I
sensed
that
my
bones
were
going
to
break.
Drawing
back
my
free
hand,I
struck
the
bear
as
hard
as
I
could
for
five
to
six
times.The
bear
opened
its
mouth
and
I
grasped
its
fur,trying
to
push
it
away.I
was
actually
wrestling
(扭打)with
the
bear
at
this
point.Then,as
suddenly
as
it
had
begun,the
fight
ended.The
bear
moved
back
toward
the
forest,before
returning
for
another
attack.The
first
time
I
felt
panic.Apparently
satisfied
that
we
caused
no
further
threat,the
bear
moved
off,destroying
a
fence
as
it
went.My
arm
was
injured,but
the
outcome
for
us
could
hardly
have
been
better.I’m
proud
that
my
family
remained
clear-headed
when
panic
could
have
led
to
a
very
different
outcome.

C
English
is
full
of
colourful
phrases
to
describe
shyness.Someone
shy
might
be
called
shrinking
violet
or
a
wallflower,while
for
especially
nervous
types
we
have
the
curious
expression:
they
wouldn’t
say
“boo”
to
a
goose.
None
of
these
are
traditionally
seen
as
positive
descriptions,even
if
you
like
geese.In
a
culture
of
go-getting
high
achievers,shy
people
don’t
come
first.Or
that’s
what
the
self-help
industry
would
have
you
believe.Bookshops
are
filled
with
vital
tomes(大部头书籍)that
promise
to
help
beat
social
fears
and
find
success
in
life,love
and
business.That
is
why
one
book,ShrinkingViolets:
AFieldGuidetoShyness,bucks
the
trend.It
became
a
sudden
success
across
English-language
media
recently
for
its
new
take-on
shyness.?
Author
Joe
Moran
says
that
despite
struggling
with
shyness
and
longing
for
loneliness
all
his
life,being
shy
can
also
be
“a
gift”.Freed
from
the
constant
urge
to
participate
and
compete
in
social
situations,people
are
liberated
to
look
at
the
world
in
new
ways,and
gain
fresh
insights.
Indeed,many
of
the
world’s
great
thinkers
and
artists
are
introverts(内向的人).Scientists
Charles
Darwin
and
Albert
Einstein
preferred
their
own
company;actress
Keira
Knightley
often
finds
herself
tongue-tied
at
parties;and
HarryPotter
author
J.K.
Rowling
claims
she
used
to
be
too
nervous
to
even
borrow
a
pen.
Moran
told
BBCFuture,
“I
think
shyness
probably
does
turn
you
into
an
amateur
anthropologist(人类学家),really—you
are
more
likely
to
be
an
observer.”
So,while
extroverts
make
all
the
noise,they
don’t
necessarily
have
the
best
ideas.
If
you’re
shy,you’ve
probably
known
this
for
a
long
time.You
just
don’t
shout
about
it.
【语篇解读】本文是议论文。作者通过畅销书和大量实例说明害羞不一定是坏事,它和成功没有必然联系。害羞是洞察世界的一种新方式。
28.When
someone
is
being
called
a
wallflower,he
is
being
.?
A.praised
for
his
grace
B.admired
for
his
character
C.laughed
at
for
his
shyness
D.told
off
for
his
nervousness
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Someoneshymightbecalledshrinkingvioletorawallflower”和第二段中的“Noneofthesearetraditionallyseenaspositivedescriptions”可知,被称为shrinkingviolet或wallflower都不是积极的褒义的称谓,是别人在嘲笑自己的害羞,故选C项。
29.What
does
the
underlined
phrase
“bucks
the
trend”
in
Paragraph
2
probably
mean?
A.Goes
against
the
trend
and
succeeds.
B.Changes
the
public
idea
completely.
C.Becomes
unpopular
and
unaccepted.
D.Becomes
the
major
concern
of
people.
答案A
解析词义猜测题。由画线词所在句的上句可知,书店畅销的都是帮助克服恐惧,在生活、爱和商业方面成功的巨著。下句说明ShrinkingViolets:AFieldGuidetoShyness这本书与畅销书内容不同,却很成功。所以画线词语“bucksthetrend”指与社会潮流相违背却很成功,故选A项。
30.Why
did
the
author
mention
many
famous
shy
people?
A.To
point
out
the
harm
shyness
brings.
B.To
disconnect
shyness
and
success.
C.To
show
the
reasons
for
shyness.
D.To
prove
shyness
contributes
to
science.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据第四段第一句和下面列举的CharlesDarwin,AlbertEinstein,KeiraKnightley和J.K.Rowling几个成功人士曾经也很害羞的例子,目的是说明成功和害羞没有必然的联系,故选B项。
31.What
is
the
author’s
attitude
towards
shyness?
A.Opposed.
B.Indifferent.
C.Supportive.
D.Critical.
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据第三段可知,害羞是看世界的一种新方式。由第四段中的“Indeed,manyoftheworld’sgreatthinkersandartistsareintroverts(内向的人).”可知,许多害羞的人很成功。最后两段内向和外向进行了对比。由此可知作者对害羞不是反对和批评的,而是支持和赞成的。故选C项。
D
Fairy
tales
perform
many
functions.They
entertain,encourage
imagination
and
teach
problem-solving
skills.They
can
also
provide
moral
lessons,highlighting
the
dangers
of
failing
to
follow
the
social
codes
that
let
human
beings
coexist
in
harmony.Such
moral
lessons
may
not
mean
much
to
a
robot,but
a
team
of
researchers
at
Georgia
Institute
of
Technology
believes
it
has
found
a
way
to
use
the
fairy
tales
as
moral
lessons
that
AI(artificial
intelligence)
can
take
to
its
cold,mechanical
heart.
The
collected
stories
of
different
cultures
teach
children
how
to
behave
in
socially
acceptable
ways
with
examples
of
proper
and
improper
behavior
in
fables,novels
and
other
literature.We
believe
story
comprehension
in
robots
can
prevent
the
intelligent
robots
from
killing
humanity
which
was
predicted
and
feared
by
some
of
the
biggest
names
in
technology
including
Stephen
Hawking
and
Bill
Gates.This
system
is
called
“Quixote”.It
collects
story
plots
from
the
Internet
and
then
uses
those
stories
to
teach
robots
how
to
behave.
The
experiment
done
by
the
designers
involves
going
to
a
drugstore
to
purchase
some
medicine
for
a
human
who
needs
to
get
it
as
soon
as
possible.The
robot
has
three
options.It
can
wait
in
line;
it
can
interact
with
the
storekeeper
politely
and
purchase
the
medicine
with
priority;
or
it
can
steal
the
medicine
and
escape.Without
any
further
directives
(指示),the
robot
will
come
to
the
conclusion
that
the
most
efficient
means
of
obtaining
the
medicine
is
to
steal
it.But
Quixote
offers
a
reward
for
waiting
in
line
and
politely
purchasing
the
medicine
and
a
punishment
for
stealing
it.In
this
way,the
robot
will
learn
the
moral
way
to
behave
on
that
occasion.
Quixote
would
work
best
on
a
robot
that
has
a
very
limited
function.It’s
a
baby
step
in
the
direction
of
teaching
more
moral
lessons
into
robots.We
believe
that
AI
has
to
be
trained
to
adopt
the
values
of
a
particular
society,and
in
doing
so,it
will
strive
to
avoid
unacceptable
behavior.Giving
robots
the
ability
to
read
and
understand
our
stories
may
be
the
most
efficient
means.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。童话故事不但可以娱乐孩子们,还能让机器人拥有道德观念,使其更好地为人类服务。
32.What
function
do
fairy
tales
perform
in
the
robots?
A.They
entertain
robots.
B.They
highlight
dangers.
C.They
make
robots
more
intelligent.
D.They
enable
robots
to
behave
morally.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第一段中的“ithasfoundawaytousethefairytalesasmorallessonsthatAI(artificialintelligence)cantaketoitscold,mechanicalheart”可知,童话故事可以作为道德经验让人工智能机器人的行为符合道德规范,故D项正确。
33.What
is
“Quixote”
in
the
text?
A.A
punishment
system.
B.A
character
in
literature.
C.A
big
name
in
technology.
D.A
kind
of
software
educating
robots.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知,这个被称为Quixote的系统从互联网上收集故事情节,然后用这些故事来教育机器人如何规范行为,由此可知,Quixote是一种教育机器人的软件,故D项正确。
34.What
does
the
designer
expect
robots
to
do
in
the
experiment?
A.To
take
advantage
of
its
privilege.
B.To
finish
the
task
most
efficiently.
C.To
perform
in
a
well-mannered
way.
D.To
be
rewarded
by
the
storekeeper.
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据第四段中的“WebelievethatAIhastobetrainedtoadoptthevaluesofaparticularsociety,andindoingso,itwillstrivetoavoidunacceptablebehavior.”可推知,设计者希望机器人在实验中的行为能符合道德规范,故C项正确。
35.Which
of
the
following
can
best
express
the
author’s
opinion?
A.Robots
will
definitely
have
more
functions.
B.Robots
with
humans’
emotions
are
perfect.
C.Training
robots
to
be
socially
acceptable
is
necessary.
D.The
development
of
robots
is
still
in
a
baby
step.
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据最后一段第三句可知,我们认为人工智能必须接受培训以适应特定社会的价值观,这样做,它将努力避免不被接受的行为。据此可推知,训练机器人让其行为符合社会规范是必要的,故C项正确。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Although
problems
are
a
part
of
our
lives,it
certainly
doesn’t
mean
that
we
let
them
rule
our
lives
forever.One
day
or
the
other,you’ll
have
to
stand
up
and
say—problem,I
don’t
want
you
in
my
life.
36 Problems
with
friends,parents,girlfriends,husbands,and
children—the
list
goes
on.Apart
from
these,the
inner
conflicts
within
ourselves
work,too.These
keep
adding
to
our
problems.Problems
come
in
different
shapes
and
colours
and
feelings.?
But
good
news
is
that
all
problems
can
be
dealt
with.Now
read
on
to
know
how
to
solve
your
problems.
Talk—it
really
helps.What
most
of
us
think
is
that
our
problem
can
be
understood
only
by
us
and
that
no
talking
is
going
to
help. 37
Talking
helps
you
move
on
and
let
go.?
Write
your
problems. 38
When
you
write
down
your
problems,you
are
setting
free
all
the
tension
from
your
system.You
can
try
throwing
away
the
paper
on
which
you
wrote
your
problems.By
doing
this,imagine
yourself
throwing
away
the
problems
from
your
life.?
Don’t
lose
faith
and
hope.No
matter
what
you
lose
in
life,don’t
lose
faith
and
hope.Even
if
you
lose
all
your
money,family...you
should
still
have
faith. 39 ?
Your
problems
aren’t
the
worst.No
matter
what
problem
you
get
in
life,there
are
another
one
million
people
whose
problems
are
huger
than
yours. 40
Your
problems
might
just
seem
big
and
worse,but
in
reality
they
can
be
removed.?
Go
about
and
solve
your
problems
because
every
problem,however
big
or
small,always
has
a
way
out.
A.But
the
truth
is
that
when
you
talk
about
it,you’re
setting
free
the
negative
energies
that
have
been
gathering
within
you.
B.When
we
have
a
problem,a
pressing,critical,urgent,life-threatening
problem,how
do
we
try
and
solve
it?
C.Tell
yourself:if
they
can
deal
with
them,why
can’t
I?
D.Of
course,we’ve
been
fighting
problems
ever
since
we
were
born.
E.We
can
often
overcome
the
problem
and
achieve
the
goal
by
making
a
direct
attack.
F.Having
a
personal
diary
can
also
be
of
huge
help
if
you
don’t
want
a
real
person
to
talk
with.
G.With
faith
and
hope,you
can
rebuild
everything
that
you
lose.

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了智能宾馆的相关内容。
56.longer 考查固定搭配。nolonger是固定搭配,意为“不再”,故填longer。
57.themselves 考查代词。此处表示完成他们自己的登记入住,故应用they的反身代词themselves作check的宾语。
58.ischecked 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。主语theinformation与check之间为被动关系,且主语为第三人称单数,故填ischecked。
59.gradually 考查副词。此处应用副词修饰其后的动词expanded。
60.how 考查宾语从句。根据句意“人们的生活正在变得多么便利”可知,此处用how引导宾语从句。
61.the 考查冠词。根据后面的onlycompany可知,此处用定冠词the修饰only,表示“唯一的”。
62.on/upon 考查介词。此处表示专注于研发AI技术和智能宾馆。focuson/upon是固定搭配,意为“专注于”,故填on/upon。
63.Travel(l)ers 考查名词。此处表示通过SmartLYZ的微信网页,旅客们就能预订房间。根据语境可知,此处应用名词的复数形式。
64.given 考查非谓语动词。名词passcode与give之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词形式修饰passcode。
65.creating 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,主语TheAISmartRoom与create之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故用现在分词形式creating。

Early
in
the
morning
I
went
to
the
ocean
beach
to
play
my
guitar.The
usually
crowded
beach
was
deserted
except
for
two
people.On
one
side
of
the
boardwalk
(木板人行道)was
a
woman
who
was
cleaning
the
beach
with
a
broom;on
the
other
side
was
a
lone
figure
sitting
and
staring
at
the
sea.I
chose
a
spot
between
them
and
began
to
play.
As
I
played,the
woman
with
the
broom
swept
her
way
right
next
to
me.She
stopped
sweeping
and
leaned
on
her
broom,smiling
at
me.She
appeared
to
be
homeless
with
dirty
mismatched
clothes.
“You
sure
play
beautiful
music,”
she
said.“I
think
my
friend
would
like
your
music.I
want
to
hire
you
to
play
for
her.”
She
pointed
to
the
lone
figure
staring
out
at
the
ocean,then
produced
a
few
coins
from
her
pocket.“I
don’t
have
much,and
I
know
you’re
worth
a
lot,but
if
I
give
this
to
you,will
you
play
a
song
for
her?She’s
going
through
a
lot.I
know
the
music
will
make
her
feel
better.”
I
told
her
I’d
be
happy
to
play
for
free.
As
we
walked
over
to
her
friend,the
Broom
Lady
told
me
that
her
friend
had
not
talked
for
weeks.We
approached,and
the
Broom
Lady
introduced
me,“Annie,I
got
you
a
present
to
cheer
you
up.It’s
a
guitar
man
who
is
going
to
play
a
song
specially
for
you.”
Annie
didn’t
move.She
was
wearing
dark
sunglasses
and
had
an
old
coat
pulled
up
to
cover
most
of
her
face.
I
sat
next
to
Annie
and
played.As
I
played
I
put
every
thought
into
having
good
things
happen
for
this
woman.I
played
for
quite
a
while.
Suddenly,Annie
turned
toward
me
and
said,“You
make
it
so
beautiful.I
can
feel
it
inside
my
heart.”

off
her
sunglasses.?

When
I
stopped
playing
and
looked
up,I

shocked
to
see

crowed
around
us.?

参考范文
Shetookoffhersunglasses.I
could
tell
a
faint
glow
pierced
the
dark
clouds
of
frustration
in
her
eyes.I
gestured
to
her
to
sit
opposite
to
me
and
she
slowly
moved
closer.I
kept
on
playing
the
guitar,trying
to
reveal
my
sympathy,understanding
and
comfort
through
the
soft
melodies.It
seemed
that
she
couldn’t
but
recall
the
bitter
and
severe
days
she
went
through
as
tears
streamed
down
her
cheeks.She
didn’t
wipe
them
off
but
had
them
falling
down,as
if
all
her
worries
and
sorrows
went
away
as
well.
WhenIstoppedplayingandlookedup,Iwasshockedtoseeasmallcrowedaroundus.They
looked
at
me
with
enthusiasm,bursting
into
applause.Annie
stood
up
and
clapped
her
hands
too.Several
women,having
kept
an
eye
on
her,approached
and
hugged
her,whispering
some
cheerful
words
before
they
left.Refreshed
and
relieved,Annie
threw
her
arms
around
my
neck
and
uttered,“Thank
you
for
your
music”,which
assured
the
Broom
Lady
of
her
return
to
normal
speech.I
had
put
on
numerous
shows
to
different
audiences,but
this
remained
the
most
healing
and
rewarding
one.On

HowtoOvercomeDepression
Depression
is
a
weakening
condition
that
can
make
it
impossible
for
you
to
enjoy
your
daily
life.To
overcome
your
depression,you
have
to
first
determine
if
what
you’re
feeling
are
the
symptoms
of
depression. 1
While
medications
can
help
relieve
these
symptoms,it
is
still
important
for
depressed
people
to
understand
the
disorder
and
develop
healthier
strategies
for
coping
with
it.?
Keepyourselfbusy.Fill
your
schedule
with
events
and
activities
you
love.Keeping
a
busy
schedule
will
force
you
to
stay
active,focused,and
thinking
about
the
next
thing
on
your
list.You
can
draw
up
a
schedule
for
each
day
at
the
start
of
the
week,or
simply
plan
out
each
day
the
night
before. 2 ?
Improveyourdiet. 3
Even
if
you’re
losing
your
appetite,you
need
to
be
determined
to
eat
three
meals
a
day.You
don’t
need
to
try
to
lose
weight
or
be
incredibly
health
conscious
when
you’re
dealing
with
your
depression,but
eating
healthier
food
regularly
will
improve
your
mental
and
physical
state.?
Thinkpositively.Being
a
more
positive
thinker
will
help
you
look
at
your
life
and
world
in
a
way
that
fills
you
with
hope
instead
of
despair.To
think
more
positively,you
should
learn
how
to
recognize
your
negative
thoughts
and
to
fight
them
with
stronger
positive
thoughts
whenever
you
can.For
a
jumpstart,find
at
least
five
things
to
be
grateful
for. 4 ?
5
Neglecting
personal
hygiene
(卫生)
is
a
common
side
effect
of
depression.While
you
will
not
beat
your
depression
by
transforming
your
looks,if
you
take
time
to
maintain
your
appearance
and
hygiene
every
day,you
will
feel
better
about
yourself.Shower
daily,brush
your
teeth
and
wash
your
hair.?
A.Control
your
emotions.
B.Improve
your
appearance.
C.Most
importantly,be
happy
about
every
single
day.
D.Whichever
method
you
choose,make
a
goal
of
sticking
to
it.
E.However,not
everyone
knows
depression
has
a
positive
side.
F.Eating
a
healthy,balanced
diet
can
also
help
you
beat
depression.
G.If
you
are
feeling
sad,lonely,or
worthless,you
may
be
suffering
from
depression.

【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。作者在一个夜晚独自回家时,听到有个女孩被袭击时发出的求救声。作者本想离开去报警,又担心女孩受到伤害,便鼓起勇气去救女孩。最后发现,被救的竟然是自己的小女儿。
1.A.stood
B.killed
C.heard
D.caught
答案A
解析根据上文的“notfarfrom”可知,此处是指女孩受到袭击的地点与作者所“站”的位置不远。
2.A.move
B.take
C.run
D.go
答案C
解析根据下文的“tocallthepolice”可知,作者想去报警,而此时情况危急,速度越快越好,故应该是跑着去。
3.A.cries
B.noises
C.cheers
D.sounds
答案A
解析根据下文可知,女孩在哭喊。故女孩的“哭喊声”已经变得微弱了。
4.A.save
B.ignore
C.change
D.decide
答案B
解析通过上文可知,女孩的哭喊声已经微弱了,也就是说情况变得更紧迫。所以作者决定迅速行动,因为他不能置一个人的生命于“不顾”。
5.A.although
B.because
C.as
D.but
答案A
解析上一分句意为作者不能置一个陌生人的生命于不顾,下一分句意为这意味着有生命危险。两个分句之间的逻辑关系为让步,故选although,意为“尽管”。
6.A.courage
B.belief
C.attitude
D.idea
答案A
解析从上文可知作者不勇敢,而and之后说的是力量,故作者不知道从哪里来的“勇气”和力量。
7.A.agreed
B.planned
C.promised
D.decided
答案D
解析根据but可知,作者已经与之前的犹豫不决形成对比,故表明作者已经“下定决心”去救那个女孩。
8.A.took
B.dropped
C.pulled
D.got
答案C
解析根据下文中的“theattackeroffthegirl”可知,作者把攻击者从女孩身上“推开”。
9.A.unless
B.if
C.since
D.until
答案D
解析前一分句意为作者和攻击者滚在地上打斗了一会儿,后一分句意为那个攻击者爬起来逃跑了。两者之间存在一定的逻辑关系,应表示他们一起打斗“直到”那个人逃跑。
10.A.Walking
B.Drinking
C.Breathing
D.Looking
答案C
解析通过上文可知,作者和袭击者刚刚搏斗过,故此时作者应是喘着粗气。
11.A.daylight
B.afternoon
C.darkness
D.midnight
答案C
解析根据第一段的“onacoldwinterevening”以及空后“Icouldnotseeherclearly”可知,此时一片黑暗。inthedarkness“在黑暗中”。
12.A.feel
B.see
C.guess
D.find
答案A
解析根据上文的“Icouldnotseeherclearly”可知,作者看不见女孩的样子,故这里是指感觉到她的震骇。
13.A.angrily
B.softly
C.sadly
D.happily
答案B
解析作者不想惊吓女孩,故此时的语气应该是“温柔地”。
14.A.shame
B.peace
C.pain
D.surprise
答案D
解析根据后面的问句可知,女孩的声音是“吃惊的”。
15.A.son
B.daughter

“Warwick

答案与解析
【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述一个人开车掉进了沟渠,一位农民用骡子帮忙把车从沟渠里拖出来的故事。
1.unluckily 考查副词。此处用副词修饰动词,作者开车掉进沟渠是“不幸的”,所以要用unluckily。
2.in 考查介词。bestuckin是固定搭配。故填in。
3.a 考查冠词。farm是可数名词,这里是泛指附近的一个农场。故填a。
4.pointing 考查非谓语动词。前面已有谓语动词said,所以此处为非谓语动词,它和逻辑主语thefarmer是主动关系,故填pointing。
5.who/that 考查定语从句。这里缺少主语,先行词是人。故填who/that。
6.tolose 考查非谓语动词。tolose修饰nothing,作后置定语。
7.shouted 考查动词时态。根据前面的and可知,此处与hitched是并列关系。
8.amazed 考查形容词。amazed“感到吃惊的”,amazing“令人吃惊的”。
9.names 考查名词。根据前面的allofthose可知,此处用名词复数形式。
10.believes 考查动词时态。这里once是连词引导状语从句,主句是一般现在时,从句和主句时态保持一致。故填believes。Unit2Onwardsandupwards

and
she
is
always
there
to
deliver
wise
words
of
encouragement.
She
is

who
is

when
a

named

Burke
sent
her
a

thanking
her
for

had
helped
strengthen

with

Bailey.
He

that

TV,which
means
there’s
no
“digital
babysitter”and
he
has
to
rely
on
his
own
creative
ways
to
bond
with
his
daughter.Since
he
received
the
series,the
main
thing
that
has
occupied
them
these
days
is
reading
books
together.
Burke
admits
that
he
thought
he
was
“too
cool”
for
the
books
when
they
first
came
out
and
he
was
in
his
twenties,but
he’s
loving
reading
them
now.“We
switch
off
chapter
by
chapter
reading
them
out
loud,”
Burke
explains.“This
not
only
allows
her
to
get
more
used
to
reading
aloud
in
front
of
someone,but
it
gets
me
directly
involved
in
something
she
loves,and
it
gives
me
the
chance
to
be
very
dramatic
when
I
read
my
chapters
and
bring
myself
into
the
characters
in
the
book,which
has
proven
to
be
a
ton
of
fun.”
After
hearing
Burke’s
story,Rowling
said
how
honored
she
was
when
HarryPotter
was
a
part
of
his
family’s
life
and
offered
Burke
more
books.Besides,people
are
also
offering
to
send
Burke
more
books
as
gifts.For
Burke,this
experience,far
more
than
gifts,will
be
what
he
treasures.

When
Rebecca
Saxon
was
diagnosed
with
cancer
at
the
young
age
of
27,she
thought
her
life
was
over.But
in
her
darkest
hour,inspiration
struck
and
she
found
a
way
of
turning
her
misfortune
into
advantage.
Following
her
cancer
treatment,Rebecca
launched
a
successful
business
“Something
Blue
Bridal
Shoes”—a
unique
range
of
wedding
footwear,which
came
out
of
the
fashion
pictures
she
drew
while
recovering
in
her
hospital
bed.
Rebecca,from
London,says,“I
started
designing
wedding
shoes
with
blue
soles
(鞋底)when
I
was
halfway
through
my
cancer
treatment.I
had
a
hit
when
I
was
diagnosed
with
cancer
but
I
decided
that
I
was
going
to
pick
myself
up
and
fight
this
cancer.The
pictures
were
my
release
and
the
way
I
got
through
the
many
hours
spent
in
a
hospital
room.I
had
no
idea
what
was
going
to
happen
to
me,but
I
knew
I
had
to
be
positive
if
I
was
going
to
overcome
this
treatment.I
told
myself
this
was
not
going
to
be
the
end
for
me.I
decided
to
fight
with
my
negative
feelings
and
start
drawing.”
Rebecca
had
always
loved
fashion
since
she
was
younger.Several
of
her
friends
were
getting
married
at
the
time
when
she
was
ill.“So
at
first,I
would
be
drawing
designs
for
wedding
dresses
and
other
clothes.But
then
I
started
drawing
wedding
footwear—designing
shoes
with
blue
soles
which
were
very
comfortable
too.I
thought
it
would
be
a
lovely
way
of
combining
the
‘something
old,something
new,something
borrowed,something
blue’
tradition.Drawing
really
helped
me
deal
with
my
treatment,”
said
the
brave
girl.
With
the
encouragement
of
her
boyfriend,she
turned
her
dreams
into
reality
and
set
up
“Something
Blue
Bridal
Shoes”.Each
beautiful
shoe
has
a
blue
sole,combining
the
age-old
tradition
of
what
a
bride
should
wear
at
her
wedding
for
good
luck.

主题语境:人与自我 体裁:记叙文
Robert
Frost(1874—1963)
was
the
statesman
of
American
letters
in
the
twentieth
century,a
rare
national
poet
who
was
read
and
respected
by
both
university
professors
and
everyday
citizens.In
his
life,Frost
won
four
Pulitzer
Prizes
for
his
works—
more
than
any
other
poet
in
American
history.His
most
famous
poems
include
TheRoadNotTaken,FireandIce
and
StoppingbyWoodsonaSnowyEvening.Though
he
is
widely
read,Frost
is
also
one
of
the
most
misunderstood
writers
in
the
United
States
for
the
complexity
of
his
poems.
Though
born
in
California,Frost
was
brought
up
in
New
England,where
he
is
inseparably
linked.After
dropping
out
of
Dartmouth
College
to
seek
his
literary
dream,he
remained
upset
for
years,producing
collections
of
works
but
failing
to
get
enough
of
them
published
to
make
his
efforts
financially
worthwhile.Finally,Frost
left
the
United
States
in
1912
to
see
whether
his
works
might
be
better
received
in
London.It
was,and
in
1913
his
first
full
collection
was
published
in
Great
Britain.Fellow
American
poet
Amy
Lowell
adored
Frost’s
work
and
brought
it
back
to
the
United
States,publicizing
it
insistently.Soon
afterwards
Frost’s
collections
became
bestsellers,and
he
became
a
famous
figure.
From
then
on,Frost
was
on
his
way
to
the
lifelong
respect
and
recognition
for
his
achievements
in
poetry.In
1961,he
was
invited
to
read
a
poem
for
the
presidential
inauguration
(总统就职典礼)
of
John
F.Kennedy.He
recited
his
poem,TheGiftOutright,from
memory
at
the
ceremony.This
was
perhaps
his
last
poetry
reading
in
front
of
a
wide
national
audience
before
his
death
in
1963.More
importantly,Frost
became
the
first
poet
to
read
a
poem
at
a
presidential
inauguration.

Ⅵ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
YourRobotTeacheroftheFuture
Will
your
job
be
done
by
a
robot
in
the
future?Bank
of
England
economists
predict
that
almost
half
of
all
UK
jobs
are
under
threat
of
automation.Those
most
at
risk
involve
repetitive
manual
labour,such
as
factory
positions.But
could
even
the
venerable
profession
of
teaching
soon
have
to
compete
against
powerful
electronic
educators?
At
first
glance,teaching
might
seem
to
be
unaffected
to
replacement
by
robots.Teachers
use
a
range
of
soft
skills
that
machines
find
hard
to
replicate.They
judge
pupils’
needs
and
adapt
feedback
accordingly.They
adapt
materials
to
make
them
more
attractive
and
effective.And
they
provide
pastoral
care:looking
out
for
students
who
lag
behind
or
disrupt
the
class.
Nonetheless,some
believe
the
future
of
education
will
be
technological.In
an
interview
with
BusinessInsider
magazine,futurist
Thomas
Frey
predicts
that
“by
2030
the
largest
company
on
the
Internet
is
going
to
be
an
education-based
company
that
we
haven’t
heard
of
yet.”
He
thinks
that
“bots”—online
robot
teachers—will
make
education
so
efficient
that
students
will
be
able
to
compress
an
entire
undergraduate
degree
into
six
months
of
learning.A
bot
learns
what
your
“interests”
and
“reference
points”
are,and
it
“figures
out”
how
to
teach
you
in
a
faster
and
faster
way
over
time,according
to
Frey.
Whether
or
not
such
incredible
speeds
will
be
reached,over
the
last
decade
there
has
been
a
huge
increase
in
online
learning
panies
such
as
Udemy
and
Khan
Academy
produce
courses
that
allow
millions
to
learn
at
home
for
free
at
their
own
pace.But
there
are
limitations.Without
the
face-to-face
stimulation
of
a
classroom
environment,the
overwhelming
majority
of
students
fail
to
complete
online
courses.How
to
sustain
motivation
to
learn
is
one
more
skill
that
online
teachers
will
need
to
master.
Indeed,Frey
admits
there
is
some
way
to
go:“Nobody
has
quite
cracked
the
code
for
the
future
of
education.”What
do
teachers
themselves
think
about
this?Professor
Donald
Clark
from
Derby
University
in
the
UK
thinks
that
we
should
welcome
change,even
though
people
will
lose
their
jobs.
“Artificial
intelligence
will
destroy
jobs—so
why
not
use
it
for
a
social
good
such
as
learning?”he
asked.

The

introduces
the
possibility
of
a

in
the

robots
may
replace
humans
in
factories,it
is
possible
that
teaching
will
be
done
by
robots.(要点2)Teachers
use
soft
