Today,
paper-making
is
a
big
business.
But
it
is
still
possible
to
make
paper
by
hand
since
the
steps
are
the
same
as
using
big
machines.
You
should
use
paper
with
small
amounts
of
printing.
Old
envelopes
are
good
for
this
reason.
Colored
paper
also
can
be
used,
as
well
as
small
amounts
of
newspaper.
Small
pieces
of
rags
or
cloth
can
be
added.
These
should
be
cut
into
pieces
about
five
centimeters
by
five
centimeters.
Everything
is
placed
in
a
container,
covered
with
water
and
brought
to
a
boil.
It
is
mixed
for
about
two
hours
with
some
common
chemicals
and
then
allowed
to
cool.
Then
it
is
left
until
most
of
the
water
dries
up.
The
substance
left,
called
pulp(纸浆),
can
be
stored
until
you
are
ready
to
make
paper.
When
you
are
ready,
the
pulp
is
mixed
with
water
again.
Then
the
pulp
is
poured
into
a
mould.
The
mould
is
made
of
small
squares
of
wire
that
hold
the
shape
and
thickness
of
the
paper.
To
help
dry
the
paper,
the
mould
lets
the
water
flow
through
the
small
wire
squares.
After
several
more
drying
steps,
the
paper
is
carefully
lifted
back
from
the
mould.
It
is
now
strong
enough
to
be
touched.
The
paper
is
smoothed
and
pressed
to
remove
trapped
air.
You
can
use
a
common
electric
iron
used
for
pressing
clothes.
4.It
is
suggested
that
we
“should
choose
paper
with
small
amounts
of
printing”
to .?
A.make
paper
by
ourselves
B.renew
the
old
envelopes
C.make
various
colored
paper
D.create
our
own
newspaper
5.Whether
the
paper
is
strong
enough
to
be
touched
is
determined
by .?
A.how
long
the
pulp
is
stored
B.how
thick
the
paper
is
C.how
much
water
remains
D.what
type
of
chemicals
are
used
6.When
the
paper
is
lifted
back
from
the
mould,
it
is
time
to .?
A.make
it
smooth
B.make
it
strong
C.decorate
it
D.use
an
iron
7.The
passage
is
most
probably
intended
to
.?
A.introduce
the
history
of
paper-making
B.describe
the
process
of
paper-making
C.compare
the
ancient
with
the
modern
paper-making
D.argue
about
the
possibility
of
paper-making
by
hand

4.A 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句But
it
is
still
possible
to
make
paper
by
hand
since
the
steps
are
the
same
as
using
big
machines.可知主要讲述的是手工做纸的话题,所以在第二段中提出要选择那些印刷内容较少的纸张,目的就是自己做纸。故A正确。
5.C 推理判断题。根据第三段第三句Then
it
is
left
until
most
of
the
water
dries
up.
The
substance
left,
called
pulp(纸浆),
can
be
stored
until
you
are
ready

paper
is
smoothed
and
pressed
to
remove
trapped
air.
You
can
use
a
common
electric
iron
used
for
pressing
clothes.说明当纸从模具里拿出来以后,要对它进行熨烫,让它变平。故A正确。
7.B 主旨大意题。作者在本文中讲述的是如何手工做纸,并详细介绍了手工做纸的程序和方法。所以本文主要就是描述做纸的过程,故B正确。
C
As
trees
across
the
northern
areas
turn
gold
and
deep
red,
you
can
find
autumn
colors
in
parks
and
woodlands,
in
the
cities,
countryside,
and
mountains.
People
are
wondering
what
these
colors
are
for.
For
years,
scientists
have
worked
to
understand
the
changes
that
happen
to
trees
in
the
autumn.
Up
to
now
there
have
been
different
explanations
for
why
natural
selection
makes
autumn
colors
so
widespread.
Dr.Hamilton
from
Oxford
University
proposed
that
bright
autumn
leaves
contained
a
message:
they
warn
insects
to
leave
them
alone.
In
the
autumn,
insects
choose
trees
where
they
will
lay
eggs.
When
the
larvae(幼虫)come
out
the
next
spring,
they
feed
on
the
trees,
often
with
a
result
of
destruction
of
the
trees.
Dr.
Hamilton
suggested
that
trees
could
ward
off
these
insects
with
poisons.
They
could
have
strong
defenses
by
letting
egg-laying
insects
know
what
was
in
store
for
their
eggs.?
Dr.Hamilton
and
his
students
turned
the
theory
into
a
mathematical
model,
which
showed
that
warning
signals
could
indeed
drive
the
evolution(进化)of
bright
leaves.
It
was
a
first
attempt
to
see
what
was
out
there.
A
research
team
from
the
University
of
Wisconsin
gave
a
quite
different
explanation.
“If
you
are
up
here
in
Wisconsin,
by
the
time
leaves
change,
all
the
insects
that
feed
on
leaves
are
gone,”
Dr.
Hoch
said.
He
believed
that
autumn
colors
served
mainly
as
protection.
According
to
Dr.
Hoch
and
his
team,
autumn
colors
might
be
able
to
protect
the
leaves
from
sun
damage
or
frost(冰冻)injury—in
other
words,
they
actually
act
as
a
sunscreen
to
avoid
the
destruction
of
the
leaves.
Besides,
autumn
colors
might
protect
the
leaves
from
water
loss.
If
the
cells
in
the
leaves
become
dry,
the
connections
between
the
cells
will
be
weakened
and
the
leaves
will
break
off.
Although
there
are
different
explanations
about
autumn
colors,
it
has
really
given
them
a
deeper
concern
for
this
time
of
year.
“People
sometimes
say
that
science
makes
the
world
less
interesting
by
just
explaining
things
away,”
one
famous
biologist
said.“But
with
autumn
leaves,
the
more
you
know
about
them,
the
more
amazed
you
will
be.”
8.According
to
Dr.
Hamilton,
there
is
a
connection
between .?
A.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
survival
of
insects
B.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
behavior
of
insects
C.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
quality
of
insects
D.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
number
of
insects
9.Dr.
Hoch
and
his
team
give
the
explanation
that .?
A.climate
has
an
influence
on
the
color
of
the
leaves
B.sun
damage
and
frost
injury
drive
the
insects
away
C.the
color
of
autumn
leaves
has
a
protective
function
D.autumn
colors
bring
great
destruction
to
the
leaves
10.The
underlined
phrase
“ward
off”
in
Paragraph
2
probably
means“ ”.?
A.catch
B.attract
C.ignore
D.prevent
11.Which
of
the
following
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A.The
evolution
of
colorful
leaves
B.The
secret
to
autumn
leaves'
changes
C.The
charming
autumn
colors
D.The
role
of
leaves'
being
protection
答案
[语篇解读] 秋天到了,叶子成了金黄色。在我们眼中这是美丽的秋景,可是科学家们却在研究叶子变成黄色是为了什么。秋天的叶子里藏着什么秘密?
8.D 推理判断题。根据第二段中In
the
autumn,
insects
choose
trees
where
they
will
lay
eggs.

the
larvae(幼虫)come
out
the
next
spring,
they
feed
on
the
trees,
often
with
a
result
of
destruction
of
the
trees.可知幼虫以树叶为食,所以树叶的大小和昆虫的数量有关系。故选D项。
9.C 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中According
to
Dr.
Hoch
and
his
team,
autumn
colors
might
be
able
to
protect
the
leaves
from
sun
damage
or
frost(冰冻)injury—in
other
words,
they
actually
act
as
a
sunscreen
to
avoid
the
destruction
of
the
leaves.可知秋天的树叶有保护作用,金黄色保护叶子免受伤害,故选C项。
10.D 词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词前一句When
the
larvae(幼虫)come
out
the
next
spring,
they
feed
on
the
trees,
often
with
a
result
of
destruction
of
the
trees.和后一句They
could
have
strong
defenses
by
letting
egg-laying
insects
know
what
was
in
store
for
their
eggs.可知画线词的意思是“阻止”,故选D。
11.B 主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句As

turn
gold
and
deep
red,
you
can
find
autumn
colors
in

“But
with

the
more
you
know
about

the
more
amazed

D
If
you've
ever
had
to
chop
an
onion,
you
probably
know
that
it's
one
of
the
most
annoying
cooking
experiences.
It
just
fills
your
eyes
with
tears.
Scientists
and
farmers
have
been
working
on
a
solution
to
this
problem
for
decades,
and
they've
apparently
come
up
with
a
tearless
onion.
Called
the
“Sunion”,
this
new
vegetable
is
the
result
of
a
natural
cross-breeding
program
that's
been
going
on
farms
in
Nevada
and
Washington
since
the
1980s.
It's
supposedly
a
sweet,
mild-tasting
onion
that
doesn't
leave
that
strong,
pungent
aftertaste,
but
what
really
sets
it
apart
from
most
other
onion
varieties
is
that
it
doesn't
cause
teary
eyes
when
it's
chopped.
When
you
cut
into
a
normal
onion,
it
releases
a
compound
called
lachrymatory-factor
synthase,
and
when
that
hits
your
eyes,
your
body
produces
tears.
Now,
the
interesting
thing
about
regular
onions
is
that
the
amounts
of
lachrymatory-factor
synthase
increase
the
longer
the
vegetables
are
stored,
so
the
older
they
are,
the
more
you
will
cry.
In
Sunions,
on
the
other
hand,
the
levels
of
that
annoying
compound
drop
as
time
goes
by,
until
it
no
longer
has
any
effect
on
your
eyes
when
you
cut
it.
That's
what
Sunion
growers
are
claiming
anyway,
but
reports
from
those
lucky
enough
to
have
tried
them
seem
to
confirm
these
claims.
The
Huffington
Post
had
three
of
its
reporters
chop
some
Sunions,
and
apparently,
none
of
them
shed
a
single
tear.
According
to
the
Washington
Post,
they
don't
have
the
pungency
of
regular
onions
and
are
so
sweet
that
you
can
eat
them
“like
popcorn”.
So
the
good
news
is
that
tearless
onions
are
now
a
real
thing.
The
bad
news
is
that
they
are
currently
only
grown
in
Washington
and
Nevada,
and
even
though
they
are
sold
nationwide,
they
are
still
in
relatively
short
supply.
The
first
Sunion
batches
hit
the
shelves
of
grocery
stores
in
December,
but
we'll
probably
start
seeing
them
in
most
grocery
shops
and
supermarkets
in
the
next
few
years,
as
more
people
learn
about
them.
12.What
is
special
about
the
Sunion?
A.It's
easily
chopped.
B.It's
sweet
and
tastes
strong.
C.It's
tearless
and
mild.
D.It's
grown
nationwide
in
the
USA.
13.How
does
the
author
introduce
the
Sunion
in
Paragraph
3?
A.By
comparison.
B.By
telling
a
story.
C.By
giving
examples.
D.By
asking
questions.
14.What
does
the
underlined
word
“pungency”
in
Paragraph
4
mean?
A.Round
shape.
B.Strong
smell.
C.Special
character.
D.Medical
function.
15.What
can
we
conclude
from
the
last
paragraph?
A.The
Sunion
has
been
largely
on
the
market.
B.The
Sunion
is
still
on
trial
at
present.
C.The
Sunion
will
soon
be
grown
worldwide.
D.The
author
is
confident
about
the
future
of
the
Sunion.
答案
[语篇解读] 有过切洋葱经历的人一定会印象深刻:两眼泪水。美国两个州研究出了一种新型的洋葱,不会让人流泪而且还可以像吃玉米花那样吃它。
12.C 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句中的they've
apparently
come
up
with
a
tearless
onion及第二段中It's
supposedly
a
sweet,
mild-tasting
onion
that
doesn't
leave
that
strong,
pungent
aftertaste,
but
what
really
sets
it
apart
from
most
other
onion
varieties
is
that
it
doesn't
cause
teary
eyes
when
it's
chopped.可知这种洋葱不会让人流眼泪且气味不浓。故选C项。
13.A 推理判断题。根据文章第三段可知,作者用普通洋葱与新型洋葱进行比较,故作者是运用了比较法。故选A项。
14.B 词义猜测题。根据其后半句are
so
sweet
that
you
can
eat
them
“like
popcorn”可以猜测出pungency是“刺激性气味”之意。故选B项。
15.D 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中The
first
Sunion
batches
hit
the
shelves
of
grocery
stores
in
December,but
we'll
probably
start
seeing
them
in
most
grocery

in
the
next
few
years,as

My
daughter
is
a
single
parent.
She
works
hard
to
1
for
herself
and
her
three
young
sons.
She
budgets(谨慎花钱)
carefully
and
2
to
plan
for
the
little
luxuries
(奢侈品)
and
treats
that
others
take
for
granted.
When
her
eldest
son,
David,
wanted
a
3
so
that
he
could
do
an
after-school
newspaper
delivery
job,
she
4
and
soon,
he
was
the
proud
5
of
a
good
second-hand
bike.?
One
afternoon,
my
daughter
asked
David
to
go
to
a
local
shop.
He
rode
his
bicycle,
6
foolishly
left
it
outside
the
shop
7
locking
it
up.
When
David
came
out
of
the
shop,
it
was
8 .
He
walked
home
in
9
and
then,
together
with
his
frustrated
mother,
went
to
the
local
police
station
to
report
the
10 .?
Imagine
their
11
when
they
arrived
at
the
station:
a
car
parked
out
front
had
David’
s
bike
wedged
(把……挤入)
in
its
boot
(汽车后部的行李箱).
The
12
told
them
how
he’
d
seen
a
group
of
kids
13
the
bike
once
my
grandson
had
gone
inside
the
shop.?
The
driver
—
in
his
late
teens
himself
—
called
out
to
them
to
"leave
that
bike
14 ".
Despite
this,
one
member
of
the
group
15
on
the
bicycle
and
rode
it
away
while
the
others
followed.
Not
to
be
16 ,
the
teen
got
in
his
car,
drove
after
them
and
17
that
they
give
the
stolen
bike
back.?
He
was
18
to
be
able
to
return
it
to
my
grandson
together
with
a
lecture
about
the
silliness
of
19
to
use
the
bike
lock.
20 ,
in
all
the
excitement,
he
slipped
away,
without
even
giving
them
his
name
or
telephone
number.?

Today,
paper-making
is
a
big
business.
But
it
is
still
possible
to
make
paper
by
hand
since
the
steps
are
the
same
as
using
big
machines.
You
should
use
paper
with
small
amounts
of
printing.
Old
envelopes
are
good
for
this
reason.
Colored
paper
also
can
be
used,
as
well
as
small
amounts
of
newspaper.
Small
pieces
of
rags
or
cloth
can
be
added.
These
should
be
cut
into
pieces
about
five
centimeters
by
five
centimeters.
Everything
is
placed
in
a
container,
covered
with
water
and
brought
to
a
boil.
It
is
mixed
for
about
two
hours
with
some
common
chemicals
and
then
allowed
to
cool.
Then
it
is
left
until
most
of
the
water
dries
up.
The
substance
left,
called
pulp(纸浆),
can
be
stored
until
you
are
ready
to
make
paper.
When
you
are
ready,
the
pulp
is
mixed
with
water
again.
Then
the
pulp
is
poured
into
a
mould.
The
mould
is
made
of
small
squares
of
wire
that
hold
the
shape
and
thickness
of
the
paper.
To
help
dry
the
paper,
the
mould
lets
the
water
flow
through
the
small
wire
squares.
After
several
more
drying
steps,
the
paper
is
carefully
lifted
back
from
the
mould.
It
is
now
strong
enough
to
be
touched.
The
paper
is
smoothed
and
pressed
to
remove
trapped
air.
You
can
use
a
common
electric
iron
used
for
pressing
clothes.
4.It
is
suggested
that
we
“should
choose
paper
with
small
amounts
of
printing”
to .?
A.make
paper
by
ourselves
B.renew
the
old
envelopes
C.make
various
colored
paper
D.create

5.Whether
the
paper
is
strong
enough
to
be
touched
is
determined
by .?
A.how
long
the
pulp
is
stored
B.how
thick
the
paper
is
C.how
much
water
remains
D.what
type
of
chemicals
are
used
6.When
the
paper
is
lifted
back
from
the
mould,

A.make
it
smooth
B.make
it
strong
C.decorate
it
D.use

As
trees
across
the
northern
areas
turn
gold
and
deep
red,
you
can
find
autumn
colors
in
parks
and
woodlands,
in
the
cities,
countryside,
and
mountains.
People
are
wondering
what
these
colors
are
for.
For
years,
scientists
have
worked
to
understand
the
changes
that
happen
to
trees
in
the
autumn.
Up
to
now
there
have
been
different
explanations
for
why
natural
selection
makes
autumn
colors
so
widespread.
Dr.Hamilton
from
Oxford
University
proposed
that
bright
autumn
leaves
contained
a
message:
they
warn
insects
to
leave
them
alone.
In
the
autumn,
insects
choose
trees
where
they
will
lay
eggs.
When
the
larvae(幼虫)come
out
the
next
spring,
they
feed
on
the
trees,
often
with
a
result
of
destruction
of
the
trees.
Dr.
Hamilton
suggested
that
trees
could
ward
off
these
insects
with
poisons.
They
could
have
strong
defenses
by
letting
egg-laying
insects
know
what
was
in
store
for
their
eggs.?
Dr.Hamilton
and
his
students
turned
the
theory
into
a
mathematical
model,
which
showed
that
warning
signals
could
indeed
drive
the
evolution(进化)of
bright
leaves.
It
was
a
first
attempt
to
see
what
was
out
there.
A
research
team
from
the
University
of
Wisconsin
gave
a
quite
different
explanation.
“If
you
are
up
here
in
Wisconsin,
by
the
time
leaves
change,
all
the
insects
that
feed
on
leaves
are
gone,”
Dr.
Hoch
said.
He
believed
that
autumn
colors
served
mainly
as
protection.
According
to
Dr.
Hoch
and
his
team,
autumn
colors
might
be
able
to
protect
the
leaves
from
sun
damage
or
frost(冰冻)injury—in
other
words,
they
actually
act
as
a
sunscreen
to
avoid
the
destruction
of
the
leaves.
Besides,
autumn
colors
might
protect
the
leaves
from
water
loss.
If
the
cells
in
the
leaves
become
dry,
the
connections
between
the
cells
will
be
weakened
and
the
leaves
will
break
off.
Although
there
are
different
explanations
about
autumn
colors,
it
has
really
given
them
a
deeper
concern
for
this
time
of
year.
“People
sometimes
say
that
science
makes
the
world
less
interesting
by
just
explaining
things
away,”
one
famous
biologist
said.“But
with
autumn
leaves,
the
more
you
know
about
them,
the
more
amazed
you
will
be.”
8.According
to
Dr.
Hamilton,
there
is
a
connection
between .?
A.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
survival
of
insects
B.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
behavior
of
insects
C.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
quality
of
insects
D.the
size
of
leaves
and
the
number
of
insects
9.Dr.
Hoch
and
his
team
give
the
explanation
that .?
A.climate
has
an
influence
on
the
color
of
the
leaves
B.sun
damage
and
frost
injury
drive
the
insects
away
C.the
color
of
autumn
leaves
has
a
protective
function
D.autumn
colors
bring
great
destruction
to
the
leaves
10.The
underlined
phrase
“ward

in
Paragraph
2
probably
means“ ”.?
A.catch
B.attract
C.ignore
D.prevent
11.Which

A.The

If
you've
ever
had
to
chop
an
onion,
you
probably
know
that
it's
one
of
the
most
annoying
cooking
experiences.
It
just
fills
your
eyes
with
tears.
Scientists
and
farmers
have
been
working
on
a
solution
to
this
problem
for
decades,
and
they've
apparently
come
up
with
a
tearless
onion.
Called
the
“Sunion”,
this
new
vegetable
is
the
result
of
a
natural
cross-breeding
program
that's
been
going
on
farms
in
Nevada
and
Washington
since
the
1980s.
It's
supposedly
a
sweet,
mild-tasting
onion
that
doesn't
leave
that
strong,
pungent
aftertaste,
but
what
really
sets
it
apart
from
most
other
onion
varieties
is
that
it
doesn't
cause
teary
eyes
when
it's
chopped.
When
you
cut
into
a
normal
onion,
it
releases
a
compound
called
lachrymatory-factor
synthase,
and
when
that
hits
your
eyes,
your
body
produces
tears.
Now,
the
interesting
thing
about
regular
onions
is
that
the
amounts
of
lachrymatory-factor
synthase
increase
the
longer
the
vegetables
are
stored,
so
the
older
they
are,
the
more
you
will
cry.
In
Sunions,
on
the
other
hand,
the
levels
of
that
annoying
compound
drop
as
time
goes
by,
until
it
no
longer
has
any
effect
on
your
eyes
when
you
cut
it.
That's
what
Sunion
growers
are
claiming
anyway,
but
reports
from
those
lucky
enough
to
have
tried
them
seem
to
confirm
these
claims.
The
Huffington
Post
had
three
of
its
reporters
chop
some
Sunions,
and
apparently,
none
of
them
shed
a
single
tear.
According
to
the
Washington
Post,
they
don't
have
the
pungency
of
regular
onions
and
are
so
sweet
that
you
can
eat
them
“like
popcorn”.
So
the
good
news
is
that
tearless
onions
are
now
a
real
thing.
The
bad
news
is
that
they
are
currently
only
grown
in
Washington
and
Nevada,
and
even
though
they
are
sold
nationwide,
they
are
still
in
relatively
short
supply.
The
first
Sunion
batches
hit
the
shelves
of
grocery
stores
in
December,
but
we'll
probably
start
seeing
them
in
most
grocery
shops
and
supermarkets
in
the
next
few
years,
as
more
people
learn
about
them.
12.What
is
special
about
the
Sunion?
A.It's
easily
chopped.
B.It's
sweet
and
tastes
strong.
C.It's
tearless
and
mild.
D.It's
grown
nationwide
in
the
USA.
13.How
does
the
author
introduce
the
Sunion
in
Paragraph
3?
A.By
comparison.
B.By
telling
a
story.
C.By
giving
examples.
D.By
asking
questions.
14.What
does
the
underlined
word
“pungency”
in
Paragraph
4
mean?
A.Round
shape.
B.Strong
smell.
C.Special
character.
D.Medical
function.
15.What
can
we
conclude
from
the
last
paragraph?
A.The
Sunion
has
been
largely
on
the
market.
B.The
Sunion
is
still
on
trial
at
present.
C.The
Sunion
will
soon
be
grown
worldwide.
D.The
author
is
confident
about
the
future
of
the
Sunion.

the
teen
got
in
