Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
It
is
quite
apparent
that
competition
surrounds
every
aspect
of
human
life
whether
in
the
United
States
or
the
Amazon
rain
forest.Without
it
we
would
not
have
grown
into
primates(灵长目动物).Or
we
would
probably
still
be
struggling
to
sharpen
a
bronze
tool
while
crawling
around
on
four
legs
in
search
of
meat.Without
competition,Columbus
wouldn't
have
discovered
America
and
Edison
would
never
have
invented
the
light
bulb.
The
friendship,like
all
relationships
between
two
people,involves
competition.It
isn't
competition
in
a
traditional
sense
because
there
are
no
goals
to
be
scored
and
no
prizes.Perhaps
the
ecological
definition
—
the
simultaneous(同时的)demand
by
two
or
more
organisms
for
limited
environmental
resources,such
as
nutrients,living
space,or
light
—
better
explains
it.
As
in
nature,high
school
life
is
governed
by
a
set
of
laws,similar
to
a
shortened
version
of
Darwin's
theory
of
evolution,overpopulation,and
competition.There
is
an
abundance
of
high
school
students
and
to
distinguish
them,ranking
and
categorizing(分类)take
place.In
high
school,friendship
co?exists
with
competition
even
though
at
times
the
relationship
is
rough.In
fact,in
some
circumstances,competition
is
too
much
of
a
burden
for
friendship
to
bear,causing
it
to
fall
apart.College
admission
is
the
final
high
school
objective.Three?years
of
hard
work
is
to
achieve
good
grades,and
a
student's
fate
is
determined
not
only
by
these
achievements,but
by
the
records
of
thousands
of
other
seniors
trying
to
achieve
similar
recognition.
Nevertheless,by
necessity,competition
between
students
exists
in
all
aspects
of
high
school
life.It
sets
and
improves
the
standards
in
everything
from
sports
to
schoolwork.Healthy,friendly
competition
can
have
only
benefits,but
when
it
becomes
too
fierce,jealousy(妒忌)can
tear
friendship
apart.Yet,despite
all
this,without
competition,we
would
be
lost.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了友谊和竞争之间的关系,健康的竞争促进友谊,而恶性的竞争则破坏友谊。
1.What
does
the
ecological
definition
mainly
explain?
A.How
friends
compete
with
each
other.
B.How
to
win
the
competition.
C.What
the
result
of
competition
is.
D.What
competition
exactly
is.
D [细节理解题。分析第二段最后一句可知,该句的主干是Perhaps
the
ecological
definition
better
explains
it,其中“it”指代的是前一句中的“competition”。两个破折号之间的内容解释“the
ecological
definition”。句意:两个或者更多的生物体同时对有限的生态环境资源有需求,如营养物质、生存空间、光——这一生态学定义更好地解释了竞争(的含义)。故选D项。]
2.According
to
the
author,what
causes
the
high
school
students
to
compete?
A.The
number
of
them
is
too
large.
B.Friendship
is
a
burden
for
them.
C.They
know
the
laws
of
nature
well.
D.They
are
divided
into
different
groups.
A [细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,高中生活与自然界一样有一系列的规则,这与达尔文关于进化、人口过多和竞争的理论相似。也正是因为学生人数众多,为了区分,所以对学生进行了排名、分类。再加上考大学这一高中生活的最终目标的压力,高中生之间的竞争就不可避免地产生了。故选A项。]
3.Which
best
describes
the
relationship
of
friendship
and
competition?
A.Friendship
is
always
based
on
competition.
B.The
degree
of
competition
is
vital
to
friendship.
C.Competition
is
terribly
harmful
to
friendship.
D.Competition
is
a
result
of
lost
friendship.
B [推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Healthy,friendly
competition
can
have
only
benefits,but
when
it
becomes
too
fierce,jealousy(妒忌)can
tear
friendship
apart.”可知,健康的、友好的竞争对友谊有好处,而过于激烈的、存在妒忌的竞争会使友谊破裂。因此竞争的度对友谊是至关重要的。故选B项。]
4.What
does
the
author
think
of
“competition”?
A.The
results
of
competition
are
out
of
control.
B.Competition
becomes
fiercer
in
high
school.
C.Competition
is
certain
to
happen
in
high
school.
D.Friendship
is
not
as
important
as
competition
in
high
schools.
C [细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“Nevertheless,by
necessity,competition
between
students
exists
in
all
aspects
of
high
school
life.”可知,作者认为高中生活的各个方面存在竞争是必然的。故选C项。]
B
Some
people
are
so
rude!
Who
sends
an
e?mail
or
a
text
message
that
just
says
“Thank
you”?
Who
leaves
a
voice
mail
message
rather
than
texts
you?
Who
asks
for
a
fact
easily
found
on
Google?
Don't
these
people
realize
that
they're
wasting
your
time?
Maybe
I'm
the
rude
one
for
not
appreciating
life's
little
politeness.But
many
social
agreed
standards
just
don't
make
sense
to
people
drowning
in
digital
communication.
In
texts,you
don't
have
to
declare
who
you
are
or
even
say
hello.E?mail,too,is
slower
than
a
text.Voice
mail
is
a
now
impolite
way
of
trying
to
connect.
My
father
learned
this
lesson
after
leaving
me
a
dozen
voice
mail
messages,none
of
which
I
listened
to.Exasperated,he
called
my
sister
to
express
his
dissatisfaction
that
I
never
returned
his
phone
calls.“Why
are
you
leaving
him
voice
mail?”
my
sister
asked.“Just
text
him.”
In
the
age
of
the
smartphone,there
is
no
reason
to
ask
once?acceptable
questions
about:the
weather
forecast,a
business's
phone
number,or
directions
to
a
house,a
restaurant,which
can
be
easily
found
on
Google
Maps.But
people
still
ask
these
things.And
when
you
answer,they
respond
with
a
thank?you
e?mail.
How
to
handle
these
differing
standards?
Easy.Consider
your
audience.Some
people,especially
older
ones,appreciate
a
thank?you
message.Others,like
me,want
no
reply.
The
anthropologist(人类学家)
Margaret
Mead
once
said
that
in
traditional
societies,the
young
learn
from
the
old.But
in
modern
societies,the
old
can
also
learn
from
the
young.Here's
hoping
that
politeness
never
goes
out
of
fashion
but
that
time?wasting
forms
of
communication
do.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了如今在智能手机时代,人们应该选择哪种方式进行沟通。
5.What
does
the
underlined
word
“Exasperated”
mean
in
the
fifth
paragraph?
A.Worried.
B.Surprised.
C.Annoyed.
D.Tired.
C [词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“he
called
my
sister
to
express
his
dissatisfaction
that
I
never
returned
his
phone
calls”可知,作者的父亲对作者不给自己回电话很不满,由此可推知exasperated意思是“恼怒的,生气的”,故选C。]
6.Why
didn't
the
writer
reply
to
his
father?
A.He
liked
text
messages
better.
B.He
enjoyed
checking
his
voice
mail.
C.He
didn't
receive
any
voice
mail
messages.
D.He
didn't
want
to
talk
with
his
father.
A [推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“‘Why
are
you
leaving
him
voice
mail?’
my
sister
asked.‘Just
text
him.’”可推知,作者不喜欢用语音信箱,更偏爱发短信,故选A。]
7.Which
of
the
following
does
the
writer
agree
to?
A.People
needn't
learn
from
one
another
in
traditional
societies.
B.Dealing
with
voice
mail
should
vary
with
each
individual.
C.People
needn't
turn
to
Google
for
help
when
in
trouble.
D.Declaring
who
you
are
or
saying
hello
in
texts
is
necessary.
B [推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的内容可推知,标准是变化的,处理方式应该因人而异,而不是一刀切,语音信箱的使用亦是如此,故选B。]
8.What's
the
best
title
for
this
passage?
A.Nowadays:what
should
we
do
with
text
messages?
B.Nowadays:do
you
like
leaving
others
a
voice
message?
C.Nowadays:what
means
should
we
use
in
communication?
D.Nowadays:do
you
need
a
thank?you
message?
C [标题归纳题。根据对文章内容的整体理解可知,第三段引入本文话题,最后两段点题总结,本文主要讨论的是如今(在智能手机时代)我们应该用何种方式进行沟通,故选C项。]
Ⅱ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The
Meredith
family
lived
in
a
small
community.As
the
economy
was
in
decline,some
people
in
the
town
had
lost
their
jobs.Many
of
their
families
were
struggling
to
make
ends
meet.People
were
trying
to
help
each
other
meet
the
challenges.
Mrs.Meredith
was
a
most
kind
and
thoughtful
woman.She
spent
a
great
deal
of
time
visiting
the
poor.She
knew
they
had
problems,and
they
needed
all
kinds
of
help.When
she
had
time,she
would
bring
food
and
medicine
to
them.
One
morning
she
told
her
children
about
a
family
she
had
visited
the
day
before.There
was
a
man
sick
in
bed,his
wife,who
took
care
of
him
and
could
not
go
out
to
work,and
their
little
boy.The
little
boy—his
name
was
Bernard—had
interested
her
very
much.
“I
wish
you
could
see
him,”
she
said
to
her
own
children,John,Harry,and
Clara.“He
is
such
a
help
to
his
mother.He
wants
very
much
to
earn
some
money,but
I
don't
see
what
he
can
do.”
After
their
mother
left
the
room,the
children
sat
thinking
about
Bernard.“I
wish
we
could
help
him
to
earn
money
,”
said
Clara.“His
family
is
suffering
so
much.”
“So
do
I,”
said
Harry.“We
really
should
do
something
to
assist
them.”
For
some
moments,John
said
nothing,but,suddenly,he
sprang
to
his
feet
and
cried,“I
have
a
great
idea!I
have
a
solution
that
we
can
all
help
accomplish(完成).”
The
other
children
also
jumped
up
all
attention.When
John
had
an
idea,it
was
sure
to
be
a
good
one.“I
tell
you
what
we
can
do,”
said
John.“You
know
that
big
box
of
corn
Uncle
John
sent
us?Well,we
can
make
popcorn
(爆米花),and
put
it
into
paper
bags,and
Bernard
can
take
it
around
to
the
houses
and
sell
it.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph
1:
When
Mrs.Meredith
heard
of
John's
idea,she
thought
it
was
a
good
one,too.
Paragraph
2:
With
everything
ready,Bernard
started
out
on
his
new
business.
【参考范文】
Paragraph
1:
When
Mrs.Meredith
heard
of
John's
idea,she
thought
it
was
a
good
one,too.Very
soon,the
children
learnt
how
to
pop
the
corn
and
then
were
busy
in
doing
this
“big”
thing.At
the
same
time,their
mother
went
out
to
buy
the
paper
bags
that
they
needed.When
she
came
back,she
brought
with
her
Bernard.Bernard
felt
grateful
to
all
of
them
for
what
they
had
done
for
him.
Paragraph
2:
With
everything
ready,Bernard
started
out
on
his
new
business.Much
sooner
than
could
be
expected,he
returned
with
an
empty
basket
and
so
much
money
that
he
had
never
seen
before.He
was
so
delighted
that
he
could
hardly
speak,but
his
bright
smiling
face
spoke
for
him.For
many
weeks,every
Saturday,the
three
children
would
prepare
popcorn
for
Bernard
to
sell.This
little
boy
therefore
could
help
support
his
family.All
of
this
was
because
of
John's
bright
idea.

Ⅱ.完形填空
One
day
I
saw
an
open
shoe
store.I
walked
in.As
I
stood
talking
to
the
saleswoman,the
front
door
opened
and
a
young
man
about
twenty
came
into
the
store
in
a

.“I
need
a
new
pair
of
shoes,”
said
the
2
.As
he
turned
the
corner,I
was
3
to
see
that
he
had
no
legs.
Seeing
us
4
,
the
young
man
said,“When
I
was
a
5
,
my
parents
used
to
buy
me
a
new
pair
of
shoes
every
year.That
was
such
a
wonderful
feeling
—
6
I
have
never
forgotten.”
Soon
the
saleswoman
came
with
a
large
box.She
put
it
down
on
the
floor,took
out
a
boot
and
7
it
to
him.Placing
the
boot
8
his
nose,he
closed
both
eyes,and
took
a
deep
9
.I
did
not
know
what
to
say

tears
began
to
roll
down

Suddenly
we
heard
the
saleswoman
shouting
to
an
old
man
11
who
looked
in
the
window.The
young
man
looked
at
the
old
man
and
signalled
him
to
enter.“What
size
of
shoes
do
you
wear?”
the
young
man
asked
the
old
man.“Nine
and
a
half.”
he
replied,
12
his
old
tennis
shoes.“What's
your
13
hiking
boot
that
old
man
wears?”
the
young
man
asked.Within
a
minute,the
saleswoman
returned
with
a
pair
of
hiking
boots.He
14
out,took
the
boot,placed
it
to
his
nose
and
took
a
deep
breath.
15
,
tears
came
to
his
eyes.“Sir,would
you
mind
trying
on
these
boots?”
the
young
man
asked
the
old
poor
man.

4.strangers [考查名词复数。根据语境可知,此处表示“陌生人”,应用名词形式stranger,又因stranger是可数名词,故用复数形式。]
5.unusual [考查形容词。根据上文中的“at
least
that
was
what
I
understood”可推知,老人说的方言很不同寻常。]
6.a [考查冠词。固定搭配a
handful
of意为“一把……”,符合语境,故用不定冠词a。]
7.explaining [考查非谓语动词。explain和主句谓语动词之间没有连词,故空格处应用非谓语动词,且和句子主语he之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系,故用现在分词形式explaining。]
8.had
been [考查动词的时态。根据语境可知,“我”出于冲动给他一块巧克力,早于他给“我”樱桃。故用过去完成时。]
9.which [考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处应用which引导非限制性定语从句,在从句中作had的宾语。定语从句的先行词为cherries。]
10.generally [考查副词。修饰形容词应用副词,故填generally。]

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
Smile,you're
on
body
cam
As
camera
technology
gets
smaller
and
cheaper,it
isn't
hard
to
imagine
a
future
where
we're
all
filming
everything
all
the
time,in
every
direction.
Would
that
be
a
good
thing?
There
are
some
obvious
potential
upsides.If
people
know
they
are
on
camera,especially
when
at
work
or
using
public
services,they
are
surely
less
likely
to
misbehave.Another
upside
is
that
it
would
be
harder
to
get
away
with
crimes
or
to
escape
from
blame
for
accidents.
Body
cam
data
could
also
create
a
legal
minefield.Arguments
over
the
truth
and
interpretation
of
police
footage(影像)have
already
surfaced.Eventually,events
not
caught
on
camera
could
be
treated
as
if
they
didn't
happen.Alternatively,footage
could
be
faked
or
doctored
to
avoid
blame
or
do
wrong
to
others.
Of
course,some
people
think
that
if
you're
not
doing
anything
wrong,you
have
nothing
to
fear.But
most
people
have
done
something
embarrassing,or
even
illegal,which
they
regret
and
would
prefer
hadn't
been
caught
on
film.People
already
remove
their
social
media
feeds
or
avoid
doing
anything
wrong
in
public—for
fear
of
damaging
their
reputation.
The
always?on?camera
world
could
even
threaten
some
of
the
qualities
that
make
us
human.We
are
natural
persons
who
enjoy
talking
about
other
people's
private
lives
and
while
those
might
not
be
desirable
behaviour,they
oil
the
wheels
of
our
social
interactions.Once
people
assume
they
are
being
filmed,they
are
likely
to
keep
silent.
The
argument
in
relation
to
body
cam
ownership
is
a
bit
like
that
for
guns:once
you
go
past
a
critical
threshold(临界点),almost
everyone
will
feel
they
need
one
as
an
insurance
policy.We
are
nowhere
near
that
point
yet
—
but
we
should
think
hard
about
whether
we
really
want
to
see
lights,body
cams
and
action.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。随着摄影技术的发展,无处不在的镜头开始影响着人们的生活,在镜头下,人们使用公共服务系统时将更加规范;犯罪者将难以逃脱罪责。但是,由于影像资料可被伪造或窜改等,人们对摄影技术的使用存在争议。
1.What
does
the
underlined
word
“upsides”
in
Paragraph
2
refer
to?
A.Advantages.
B.Rules.
C.Shortcomings.
D.Dangers.
A [词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“If
people
know
they
are
on
camera...would
be
harder
to
get
away
with
crimes
or
to
escape
from
blame
for
accidents.”可知,如果人们知道自己在镜头下,则行为更加规范;犯罪者也将难以逃脱罪责。据此可以判断,该处陈述的是摄影技术发展的好处,upsides指“优点,好的一面”,故A项正确。]
2.Why
do

footage?
A.Police
footage
can
show
the
truth.
B.Events
caught
on
footage
are
treated
unfairly.
C.Police
footage
could
be
changed
on
purpose.
D.Footage
should
not
be
filmed
by
police.
C [细节理解题。根据第三段中最后两句可知,没有被摄像机捕捉到的事件可以被视为没有发生;警方的影像资料也可以被伪造或窜改。据此可知,人们对警方的影像存在争议的原因是警方的影像可以被窜改,故C项正确。]
3.What
does
the
author
believe?
A.People
pretend
to
behave
well
with
cameras
on.
B.People's
private
lives
should
be
respected.
C.Talking
about
others'
private
lives
promotes
social
interactions.
D.People
keep
silent
before
cameras
when
talking
about
themselves.
C [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后两句可知,喜欢谈论别人的私生活虽然是不可取的行为,但这种行为是我们社会交往的润滑剂;据此可知,谈论别人的私生活促进了社会交往,故C项正确。]
4.What
is
suggested
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.We
don't
need
a
critical
threshold.
B.We
should
be
cautious
about
adopting
the
body
cam.
C.We
need
the
body
cam
as
an
insurance
policy.
D.We
haven't
decided
whether
to
take
action.
B [推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句可知,body
cam是一把双刃剑,一旦超越一定的界限,则每个人都会感到安全受到了威胁;据此可以判断,我们应当谨慎使用body
cam,故B项正确。]
B
At
first
sight,Alma
Deutscher,a
thirteen?year?old
girl
from
England
appears
to
be
like
any
other
typical
preteen.She
loves
to
skip
rope,read
and
play
with
her
younger
sister.But
this
modest
youngster,who
composed
her
first
musical
work
at
age
six,first
short
opera
at
age
seven,and
first
full?length
opera
based
on
Cinderella
at
age
ten,is
anything
but
average.Though
her
parents
downplay
(不予重视)her
extraordinary
talent,young
Alma
is
being
described
as
“little
Mozart”
by
the
music
world.
Alma's
operatic
take
on
the
classic
fairy
tale,which
she
began
writing
at
age
eight,has
a
slight
twist.Her
Cinderella
is
a
musician
who
meets
her
Prince
Charming
through
a
song.“In
my
Cinderella,she
sings
the
beginning
of
a
ballad
(情歌)—
but
at
midnight
she
flees.Eventually,the
prince
finds
her
after
asking
all
the
maidens
of
the
land
to
sing
the
end
of
the
ballad.”
The
opera
was
first
performed
in
Vienna,Austria
on
December
29,2016,where
the
then
eleven?year?old
skillfully
switched
between
the
piano
and
the
violin
and
received
enthusiastic
reviews.The
young
genius
has
since
performed
two
new
piano
works,once
in
Australia
and
the
other
in
China.
While
this
may
appear
to
be
a
lot
for
someone
so
young,Alma
is
not
worried.She
says,“Of
course
I
have
to
work
hard.But
all
children
have
to
work
hard
for
exams,and
at
least
when
I
work
hard,I
work
hard
for
something
incredibly
exciting,like
seeing
my
whole
opera
put
on.”
Alma's
musical
talent
first
came
to
light
before
she
could
even
talk.Her
parents
recall
that
as
an
18?month?old
toddler,she
was
able
to
hum
a
perfect
version
of
the
children's
rhyme
Twinkle
Twinkle
Little
Star.
However,Alma's
abilities
only
gained
international
attention
in
2012,after
a
family
friend
posted
a
video
online
comparing
her
to
Mozart.The
family
was
suddenly
swamped
with
media
and
Alma
became
an
overnight
star,dubbed
“little
Mozart”.This
nickname
makes
her
parents
unhappy
because
they
believe
it
puts
added
pressure
on
the
young
girl.They
would
instead
prefer
her
to
be
called
“a
composer
and
musician”.
Alma
does
not
want
to
be
compared
to
the
famous
artist
either,saying
“There
was
only
one
Mozart,and
I
prefer
to
be
little
Alma.”
Regardless
of
what
she
calls
herself,the
thirteen?year?old
is
changing
the
world
of
music
forever!
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。13岁的Alma有音乐天赋,18个月时就能哼唱《一闪一闪小星星》,6岁时创作了她的第一部音乐作品,7岁时创作了第一部短歌剧,被人们誉为“小莫扎特”。
5.What
do
we
know
about
Alma
Deutscher?
A.She
comes
from
a
famous
musical
family.
B.She
showed
a
great
musical
talent
from
a
young
age.
C.She
regularly
performs
the
classical
music
of
Mozart.
D.She
has
adapted
some
famous
works
of
classical
music.
B [细节理解题。根据第一段的第三句“But
this
modest
youngster...is
anything
but
average.”可知,Alma
Deutscher自小便显示出了惊人的音乐天赋,故B项正确。]
6.How
did
Alma
get
to
be
widely
known?
A.Through
an
online
video.
B.By
performing
on
television.
C.By
putting
on
an
opera.
D.Through
her
parents'
promotion.
A [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的第一句“However,Alma's
abilities...after
a
family
friend
posted
a
video
online
comparing
her
to
Mozart.”可知,2012年Alma家的一位朋友在网上发布了一个视频,将Alma比作莫扎特;此后她的能力受到了国际关注,故A项正确。]
7.What
is
Alma's
attitude
towards
her
success?
A.She
is
still
unsatisfied
with
her
performance.
B.She
is
uncomfortable
with
so
much
pressure.
C.She
is
modest
about
her
musical
achievements.
D.She
is
proud
to
have
become
a
professional
musician.
C [推理判断题。根据最后一段的第一句可知,在人们将她比作莫扎特时,Alma不愿和这位著名的音乐家相提并论,她认为世界上只有一个莫扎特,而她更喜欢人们叫她“小Alma”;据此可以判断,面对人们的赞誉和自己的成功,Alma很谦虚,故C项正确。]
8.What
can
we
infer
about
Alma's
parents?
A.They
are
very
well?educated
people.
B.They
are
protective
of
their
daughter.
C.They
have
pushed
Alma
to
take
up
music.
D.They
have
made
a
good
life
plan
for
Alma.
B [推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“The
family
was
suddenly
swamped
with
media
and
Alma
became
an
overnight
star...They
would
instead
prefer
her
to
be
called
‘a
composer
and
musician’.”可知,Alma成了一夜成名的“小莫扎特”,但这个绰号让她的父母不高兴,因为他们认为这会给这个小女孩带来额外的压力,他们宁愿她被称为“作曲家和音乐家”。据此可以判断,Alma的父母是爱护她的,故B项正确。]
Ⅲ.阅读七选五
Do
you
usually
feel
you're
working
hard
but
still
can't
reach
your
study
goals?
Here
are
some
quick
tips
to
help
you
study
better.
◆Study
with
a
partner
or
in
groups
Rather
than
live
in
a
cave
with
your
nose
in
the
books
all
day,grab
a
friend
from
your
class
and
study
with
him.
1
◆Step
into
your
teacher's
shoes
Ask
yourself
“If
I
were
the
teacher,what
would
I
put
on
the
test?”
You
have
probably
experienced
a
lot
of
your
teacher's
tests
and
quizzes
by
now.
2
Teachers
have
specific
types
of
information
that
they
want
you
to
learn.The
structure
is
usually
the
same.
◆Paint
pictures
on
the
paper
You
can
build
your
knowledge
structure
in
the
form
of
pictures.It's
harder
to
remember
each
piece
of
a
puzzle
individually
than
it
is
to
recall
the
completed
picture.
3
◆
4
A
hungry
brain
is
an
ineffective
one.Your
brain
needs
the
proper
nutrients
to
keep
it
going.Because
of
this,what
you
eat
and
drink
also
plays
a
huge
role
in
how
sharp
your
brain
is.Healthy
foods
provide
nutrients
to
your
brain
cells
to
keep
them
energized.
◆Take
breaks
to
relax
your
brain
Your
brain
is
like
a
muscle.It
can
be
also
tired
if
you
overwork
it.
5
If
you
divide
studying
into
15
to
30
minutes
blocks
with
quick
breaks
in
between,your
brain
will
feel
refreshed,grateful
and
ready
for
the
next
challenge
you
throw
at.
A.Feed
your
brain
from
time
to
time.
B.It
needs
exercise
to
make
it
stronger.
C.Relax
your
brain
by
eating
and
drinking.
D.You'd
better
learn
from
them
for
the
next
test.
E.It's
necessary
to
have
a
long
holiday
and
have
nice
food.
F.Find
ways
to
connect
what
you
are
learning
to
real
life
or
to
other
concepts.
G.Group
studying
helps
you
to
engage
and
process
the
information
more
deeply.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何应用一些策略让你的学习变得更好。
1.G [根据本段的小标题可知,本段强调的是和大家一起学习。G项指出和大家学习的好处,承接上文,符合语境。]
2.D [本段讲的是从老师的角度去揣摩老师想要学生学习的知识,从而更好地为考试做好准备。D项中的them指代上文中老师所组织的考试和小测验。]
3.F [本段讲的是用联想和绘画等多种方法,把知识点记住。所以找一些方法把你正学习的东西与现实生活或其他概念联系起来。F项与上文为因果关系。]
4.A [根据本段的主要内容跟补充大脑营养有关,所以A项正确。]
5.B [本段讲大脑像肌肉一样,过度使用也会疲劳,因此需要锻炼让它更强大,所以B与之吻合。]

When
Carson
Palmer,a
professional
American
football
player,hurt
his
arm
a
few
years
ago,he
took
a
week
off
from
throwing
the
football.But
in
his
head,Palmer
practiced
every
day.The
following
weekend,Palmer
had
the
best
game
of
his
life.
For
more
than
a
century,scientists
have
been
trying
to
understand
how
this
mental
training
works.In
the
1930s,researchers
proved
by
experiment
that
when
you're
imagining
an
action,your
brain
sends
signals
to
your
muscles(肌肉)which
are
too
weak
to
tighten
the
muscles
but
might
help
train
the
body
to
perform.In
other
words,mental
practice
might
create
a
pattern
in
your
head,like
an
inner
how?to
guide
for
a
particular
skill.
Sports
psychologists
have
conducted
hundreds
of
studies
comparing
imagined
and
physical
practice
for
actions.On
the
whole,the
research
shows
that
mental
training
works.A
2012
study,for
example,compared
32
amateur
golfers
who
practiced
hitting
the
balls
to
another
32
who
merely
held
a
golf
club
in
their
hands
and
visualized(想象)their
swings.Under
the
same
training
rules,both
groups
improved
their
skills
by
getting
the
ball
about
4
inches
closer
to
the
hole.
Visualization
has
advantages
over
the
real
thing:You
can
do
it
anywhere,even
when
injured.It
is
safe
—
a
major
plus
for
high?risk
performers
such
as
gymnasts
and
surgeons.And
you
can
practice
for
longer
periods
of
time
because
you're
not
restricted
by
physical
tiredness.That's
not
to
say
it's
easy,however,“we've
had
Olympic?level
athletes
sitting
in
our
lab,visualizing
the
movements
for
two
hours,”
says
Tadhg
Macintyre,a
sports
psychologist
at
the
University
of
Limerick
in
Ireland.“When
we're
done,they're
absolutely
tired.”
It
doesn't
work
for
everyone,though.“If
you're
a
novice,the
effect
can
be
harmful,”
warns
Macintyre.“If
you're
trying
to
visualize
a
free
throw,and
you
don't
even
know
the
proper
movement,then
you're
probably
going
to
mentally
practice
the
wrong
skill.”

introduces
the
topic
of
the
text
by
.
A.giving
an
example
B.presenting
an
argument
C.explaining
a
phenomenon
D.making
an
assumption
A [推理判断题。文章第一段用美国橄榄球运动员Carson
Palmer受伤在家,但是坚持精神训练的例子来引出运动员通过精神训练法也能促进或保持运动员的竞技水平这个话题。故答案选A。]
6.What
happens
when
one
is
visualizing
an
action?
A.A
special
skill
is
quickly
acquired.
B.A
certain
model
is
formed
in
the
head.
C.The
muscles
grow
increasingly
tense.
D.The
brain
sends
strong
messages
to
the
body.
B [细节理解题。根据第二段“In
other
words,mental
practice
might
create
a
pattern
in
your
head,like
an
inner
how?to
guide
for
a
particular
skill.”精神训练法也会训练运动员的肌肉反应,创建你头脑的反应模式。故答案选B。]
7.What
does
the
underlined
word
“novice”
in
the
last
paragraph
mean?
A.Coach.
B.Specialist.
C.Beginner.
D.Judge.
C [词义猜测题。根据最后一段“don't
even
know
the
proper
movement”可知,novice指不知道运动的正确姿势和动作,对该运动不是很熟悉的人,由此可以知道该词是初学者、新手的意思。故答案选C。]
8.What
is
the
main
idea
of
the
text?
A.Athletes
are
likely
to
win
games
through
imagined
practice.
B.Practicing
a
skill
properly
in
mind
can
produce
intended
effect.

whether
mental
or
physical
has
its
own
characteristics.
D.Scientists
have
found
a
safe
way
for
athletes
to
practice
their
skills.
B [主旨大意题。本文用一个著名运动员的例子来引出话题,运动员用运动的精神训练法在某种程度上也能跟身体训练一样,达到促进运动技能的效果。故答案选B。]
C
Reading
can
be
a
social
activity.Think
of
the
people
who
belong
to
book
groups.They
choose
books
to
read
and
then
meet
to
discuss
them.Now
the
website
turns
the
page
on
the
traditional
idea
of
a
book
group.
Members
go
on
the
site
and
register
the
books
they
own
and
would
like
to
share.BookCrossing
provides
an
identification
number
to
stick
inside
the
book.Then
the
person
leaves
it
in
a
public
place,
hoping
that
the
book
will
have
an
adventure,
traveling
far
and
wide
with
each
new
reader
who
finds
it.
Bruce
Pederson,
the
managing
director
of
BookCrossing,says,“The
two
things
that
change
your
life
are
the
people
you
meet
and
books
you
read.BookCrossing
combines
both.”
Members
leave
books
on
park
benches
and
buses,
in
train
stations
and
coffee
shops.Whoever
finds
their
book
will
go
to
the
site
and
record
where
they
found
it.
People
who
find
a
book
can
also
leave
a
journal
entry
describing
what
they
thought
of
it.E?mails
are
then
sent
to
the
BookCrossers
to
keep
them
updated
about
where
their
books
have
been
found.Bruce
Pederson
says
the
idea
is
for
people
not
to
be
selfish
by
keeping
a
book
to
gather
dust
on
a
shelf
at
home.
BookCrossing
is
part
of
a
trend
among
people
who
want
to
get
back
to
the
“real”
and
not
the
virtual(虚拟).The
site
now
has
more
than
one
million
members
in
more
than
one
hundred
thirty?five
countries.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个图书漂流的网站,该网站鼓励人们拿出自己的图书与他人分享,如今超过135个国家的一百多万人成为该网站的会员。
9.Why
does
the
author
mention
book
groups
in
the
first
paragraph?
A.To
explain
what
they
are.
B.To
introduce
BookCrossing.
C.To
stress
the
importance
of
reading.
D.To
encourage
readers
to

their
ideas.
B [推理判断题。由题干定位到第一段,该段首先说阅读是一种社会性的活动,然后谈到读书小组(book
groups),接下来说到BookCrossing这个网站,说该网站给传统的读书小组翻开了新的一页(turns
the
page
on),然后逐段介绍这个网站的做法,由此推断,介绍读书小组的目的是引出这个网站,因此选B项。A项“解释它们的含义”,C项“强调阅读的重要性”,D项“鼓励读者分享他们的观点”,均不是作者提到读书小组的目的,可排除。]
10.What
does
the
underlined
word
“it”
in
Paragraph
2
refer
to?
A.The
book.
B.An
adventure.
C.A
public
place.
D.The
identification
number.
A [代词指代题。画线词在第二段,该段详细介绍这个网站的具体做法:会员去网站登记自己愿意分享的书,网站给这本书一个身份编号并贴在书中,主人把书留在公共场所,希望这本书会跟“找到它的每个新读者”一起旅行。由此可知代词it指前文提到的the
book。B项“一次冒险”,C项“一处公共场所”,D项“身份编号”,均不是it所指的内容。]
11.What
will
a
BookCrosser
do
with
a
book
after
reading
it?
A.Meet
other
readers
to
discuss
it.
B.Keep
it
safe
in
his
bookcase.
C.Pass
it
on
to
another
reader.
D.Mail
it
back
to
its
owner.
C [推理判断题。从题干中的after
reading
it判断答案在第四段。该段说,人们在看完一本书之后就把书留在公园的长凳、公共汽车、火车站及咖啡馆等地方,下一位找到这本书的人就到网站上记录他们找到这本书的地点,由此可推断选C项“把书继续传递给另一位读者”。A项“与其他读者会面,讨论这本书”,B项“把书妥善保存在书架上”,D项“把书邮寄给他的主人”,均不是会员的做法。]
12.What
is
the
best
title
for
the

A.Online

B.Electronic

C.A

D
A
new
collection
of
photos
brings
an
unsuccessful
Antarctic
voyage
back
to
life.
Frank
Hurley's
pictures
would
be
outstanding—undoubtedly
first?rate
photo?journalism—if
they
had
been
made
last
week.In
fact,they
were
shot
from
1914
through
1916,
most
of
them
after
a
disastrous
shipwreck(海难),
by
a
cameraman
who
had
no
reasonable
expectation
of
survival.Many
of
the
images
were
stored
in
an
ice
chest,
under
freezing
water,
in
the
damaged
wooden
ship.
The
ship
was
the
Endurance,
a
small,
tight,
Norwegian?built
three?master
that
was
intended
to
take
Sir
Ernest
Shackleton
and
a
small
crew
of
seamen
and
scientists,
27
men
in
all,to
the
southernmost
shore
of
Antarctica's
Weddell
Sea.From
that
point
Shackleton
wanted
to
force
a
passage
by
dog
sled
(雪橇)
across
the
continent.The
journey
was
intended
to
achieve
more
than
what
Captain
Robert
Falcon
Scott
had
done.Captain
Scott
had
reached
the
South
Pole
early
in
1912
but
had
died
with
his
four
companions
on
the
march
back.
As
writer
Caroline
Alexander
makes
clear
in
her
forceful
and
well?researched
story
The
Endurance,
adventuring
was
even
then
a
thoroughly
commercial
effort.Scott's
last
journey,completed
as
he
lay
in
a
tent
dying
of
cold
and
hunger,
caught
the
world's
imagination,
and
a
film
made
in
his
honor
drew
crowds.Shackleton,
a
onetime
British
merchant?navy
officer
who
had
got
to
within
100
miles
of
the
South
Pole
in
1908,
started
a
business
before
his
1914
voyage
to
make
money
from
movie
and
still
photography.Frank
Hurley,
a
confident
and
gifted
Australian
photographer
who
knew
the
Antarctic,was
hired
to
make
the
images,
most
of
which
have
never
before
been
published.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916年间,一群海员和科学家踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们在回来的路上发生海难,其中一个摄影师在临死之前拍摄了大量的照片,并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太成功的探险经历。
13.What
do
we
know
about
the
photos
taken
by
Hurley?
A.They
were
made
last
week.
B.They
showed
undersea
sceneries.
C.They
were
found
by
a
cameraman.
D.They
recorded
a
disastrous
adventure.
D [细节理解题。由题干中的the
photos
taken
by
Hurley定位到文章第二段开头。该段说这些照片即使是上个星期拍的也堪称佳作,故A项错误;该段中还说照片是在一次海难之后拍的,故D项正确;文章没有说拍摄的是海底景观,故B项错误;拍摄者是摄影师,但没有说是一名摄影师发现了这些照片,故C项错误。]
14.Who
reached
the
South
Pole
first
according
to
the
text?
A.Frank
Hurley.
B.Ernest
Shackleton.
C.Robert
Falcon
Scott.
D.Caroline
Alexander.
C [推理判断题。由题干中的“第一个到达南极”这条信息定位到第三段。被发现的照片所展示的这次旅行是为了获得比Robert
Falcon
Scott船长先前的探险更大的收获,该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由此推断Robert
Falcon
Scott是最先到达南极的人,故选C项。]
15.What
does
Alexander
think
was
the
purpose
of
the
1914
voyage?
A.Artistic
creation.
B.Scientific
research.
C.Money
making.
D.Treasure
hunting.
C [细节理解题。题干的Alexander在最后一段出现,the
1914
voyage指本文谈到的Endurance这艘船的探险,该段开头说,这个作家在她的小说The
Endurance中说,在那时,探险就已经是纯商业活动(a
thoroughly
commercial
effort)了,因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱(money
making),故选C项。A项“艺术创作”,B项“科学调研”,D项“寻宝”,均未体现。]
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
Last
summer
over
12,000
fans
were
at
Wembley
Arena
in
London,shouting
and
cheering.Thousands
more
were
watching
online.
16
It
was
esports,or
competitive
computer
gaming.
Millions
of
people
in
the
UK
play
computer
games
for
fun.Some
of
them
have
become
professional
gamers,playing
games
as
their
full?time
job.
17
They
practise
for
ten
or
more
hours
a
day,five
or
six
days
a
week.They
do
exercises
like
typing
something
and
trying
to
type
it
faster
and
faster.They
also
study
videos
of
other
players
and
plan
ways
to
beat
them.
18
Are
players
athletes?
Some
say
no.Esports
players
don't
need
to
run,jump,throw
or
do
big
physical
actions.At
the
moment,the
UK
government
classifies
esports
as
kinds
of
games,not
as
sports.
But
others
say
yes:esports
are
sports.Players
do
need
some
physical
skills,especially
hand?eye
coordination,reflexes,accuracy
and
timing.If
darts,snooker
and
shooting
are
classified
as
sports,then
perhaps
esports
should
be
too.
19
And
they
will
be
an
official
medal
sport
in
the
Asian
Games
starting
from
2022.Next
step:the
Olympics?
For
many
esports
fans
and
players,though,the
most
important
thing
is
that
esports
are
growing
in
popularity
and
importance.
20
A.But
are
esports
really
sports?
B.All
like
playing
computer
games.
C.It's
not
easy
being
a
professional
gamer,though.
D.But
this
wasn't
a
football,basketball
or
tennis
match.
E.It
is
certain
that
esports
will
come
into
the
2024
Olympics.
F.In
fact,China
and
South
Korea
do
classify
esports
as
sports.
G.If
esports
are
not
as
important
as
sports
now,they
definitely
will
be
in
the
near
future.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了电子体育的现状、发展前景和人们对它的看法。

Sleepwalking
is
most
common
during
the
preteen
years
and
may
affect
15
percent
of
children.Here
are
some
ways
to
21
this
nighttime
behavior.
Sound
an
alarm.
22
is
an
obvious
concern
in
this
situation,so
if
you
don't
have
an
alarm
system
in
your
house
to
help
23
your
child
inside,you
may
want
to
use
an
individual
door
alarm.Place
a
gate
in
the
doorway
to
your
child's
24
.This
will
keep
the
sleepwalker
in
the
room,or
he
may
make
enough
25
trying
to
move
the
gate
that
you'll
catch
your
child
in
the
act.Make
sure
you
have
safety
locks
on
all
doors
and
windows
26
outside,so
your
child
can't
leave
the
house
while
sleepwalking.
27
your
child
back
to
bed.
28
encourage
him
to
go
to
sleep.
29
sleepwalkers
are
in
the
deepest
stage
of
sleep,they
will
be
confused
if
woken.In
addition,
30
the
sleepwalkers
may
disrupt
their
sleep,which
in
turn
may
cause
their
daytime
31
.
Reduce
stress.Most
often,sleepwalking
is
the
result
of
emotional
32
.When
a
second
child
is
born,the
older
child
may
be
afraid
of
losing
his
parents'
love.Talk
with
your
child
about
33
in
his
life.If
you
find
your
child's
sleepwalking
might
be
34
by
some
stress
in
his
life,try
to
35
it.Get
the
help
of
a
mental
health
expert
if
he
needs
it.

37.when [考查状语从句。设空处引导时间状语从句,故填when。]
38.felt [考查动词的时态。根据从句时态提示词“landed”并结合语境可知,主句也应用一般过去时,故填felt。]
39.waiting [考查非谓语动词。此处为“see+宾语+宾补”复合结构,wait与people之间为主谓关系,且wait表示的动作正在进行,要用现在分词作宾补,故填waiting。]
40.from [考查介词。设空处表示“来自……”,故填介词from。]
41.and [考查连词。分析句子结构可知,句中不缺少成分,且空格前后是两个并列分句,且是递进关系,故填and。]
42.badly [考查副词。修饰谓语动词missing应用副词,故填badly。]
43.a [考查冠词。experience作“经历”讲时,是可数名词,因此此处用不定冠词表示泛指。故填a。]
44.broaden [考查动词。不定式符号to后接动词原形,故填broaden,意为“增长;扩大”。]
45.are
tied [考查动词的时态和语态。主语human
beings与谓语动词tie之间为被动关系,且主语是复数,故填are
tied。]

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Once
upon
a
time
in
my
family,the
Saturday
after
Mid-Autumn
Festival
was
the
start
of
our
annual
big
tamale(玉米粽子)?making
party.We
made
them
to
share
with
friends
and
neighbors.
Preparation
began
with
Daddy
and
the
cleaning
of
the
corn
husks(外壳).First
he
boiled
them
and
left
them
in
the
water
overnight.No
husk
passed
inspection
without
being
soft
enough
for
folding.The
next
day,the
rest
of
us
got
to
work.My
brothers
and
uncles
were
on
hand
for
clean?up
duty.And
there
was
much
to
clean
up
as
we
women
prepared
the
dough(生面团)
made
of
corn.We
also
prepared
the
meat
for
the
filling.The
dough
had
to
be
spread
evenly
across
the
husk,and
each
tamale
folded
carefully
so
it
would
not
split
open
during
steaming.
According
to
the
long?standing
tradition
—
at
least
in
my
family
—
no
one
was
allowed
to
leave
the
kitchen
during
the
steaming.This
could
ruin
the
process.After
all,no
one
wanted
a
bad
tamale!
I
thought
the
family
tamale?making
party
would
go
on
forever,but
to
continue
a
family
tradition,you
needed
to
have
family.Mine
had
changed
forever.My
father,two
of
my
brothers
and
my
uncle
died
in
a
short
span
of
time.Mom
and
I
spent
months
in
a
state
of
sad
loss.Once
friends
asked,“Are
we
going
to
get
tamales
this
year?”
Passing
tamales
out
to
friends
was
one
of
the
great
joys
of
the
season,after
all.But
we
couldn't
face
it.Eventually,as
the
years
went
by,people
stopped
asking.
One
afternoon,just
before
Mid-Autumn
Festival,my
mother
and
I
pushed
an
empty
shopping
cart
through
the
supermarket.I
rounded
the
corner
into
the
next
room
and
found
her
standing
in
front
of
a
counter:packages
of
dough,bags
of
corn
husks,dried
spices
—
all
the
materials
for
a
perfect
tamale.“It's
time,”
Mom
said.I
knew
she
was
right.We
set
aside
a
Saturday
to
spend
in
the
kitchen,just
the
two
of
us,alone
with
our
thoughts.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph
1:
When
we
laid
everything
out
I
fell
into
the
old
routine.
Paragraph
2:
My
mother
and
I
pronounced
our
tamale?making
a
success,full
of
loving
memories
from
the
past
and
hopeful
wishes
for
tomorrow.

Paragraph
1:
When
we
laid
everything
out
I
fell
into
the
old
routine.We
were
for
clean?up
duty
ourselves
as
we
went
along.Of
course
Daddy
wasn't
there
to
deal
with
the
corn
husks.They
hadn't
been
cleaned;they
hadn't
been
in
the
water.We
lit
a
candle
for
our
relatives
in
heaven
and
got
to
work
filling
and
folding
the
tamales.Neither
of
us
stepped
out
of
the
busy
kitchen
until
the
steaming
was
complete.By
the
end
of
the
day,we
had
many
beautiful
tamales
to
share
with
our
neighbors
and
friends.
Paragraph
2:
My
mother
and
I
pronounced
our
tamale?making
a
success,full
of
loving
memories
from
the
past
and
hopeful
wishes
for
tomorrow.You
can
be
sure
we
are
preparing
for
this
year's
tamales
and
our
kitchen
will
be
crowded
once
again.My
grandniece
wants
to
learn
the
family
tradition.Rule
One:No
one
leaves
the
kitchen
during
the
steaming!
Life
may
change,but
our
family
is
forever
bound
together
by
love,memories
and
our
favorite
dish.
