The Transportation Department is mapping out a new plan for the city’s parking system. There are one million cars on the road in Shanghai but only enough public parking space to provide room for 15percent of them. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park. The city is seeing a rise in private car owners. In March, the city sent out 2,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. And prices rose to 14,600 yuan, 500 more than in February. Industry experts say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars. By the year 2020, the number of automobiles in Shanghai will probably reach two million. If one parking lot is for each car, then a lot of parking space should be built for these vehicles. Downtown Shanghai is most short of parking space. However, experts point out that simply building more parking lots in downtown areas is not practical and doesn’t provide an ideal solution. The idea of “Park & Ride” system has been suggested. This means that drivers can leave their vehicles in car par nearby subway or bus stations and ride public transport to go downtown. Based on this idea, the city will limit the number of parking lots in downtown areas and demand higher parking fees but build more parking areas near main subway and bus stops. 24. The underlined phrase “mapping out ” in the first paragraph means __________. A. making B. arguing C. controlling D. inspiring 25. About __________ drivers can find places to park their cars in Shanghai now. A. 850,000 B. 1,000,000 C. 150,000 D. 2,000,000 26. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us ? A. The city sent out more private licenses in February. B. Less and less people bought cars in March. C. The city sent out less private licenses in March. D. More and more people are going to buy cars. 27. According to the idea of a “Park & Ride” system, the city will __________. A. send out more private car licenses B. build more parking lots near bus stops C. encourage people to buy more cars D. build more parking areas in downtown C I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her things had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier (更脏乱的). She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other. War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Then, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started shouting. She shouted back louder. The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, crying. Obviously, she could not go through that alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and the floor, even on her side. I was so buried in my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried with her expression of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to hold mine. I looked up into her eyes. she smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned how to live together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on. 28. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed? A. By explaining causes. B. By describing a process. C. By showing differences. D. By following time order. 29. What made Kate so angry one evening? A. She couldn’t find her books. B. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed. C. She got the news that her grandma was ill. D. She heard the author shouting loud. 30. The author cleaned the room most probably because_________. A. she was scareded by Kate’s anger B. she hated herself for being so messy C. she wanted to show her care D. she was asked by Kate to do so 31. What might be the best title for the story? A. My Friend Kate B. Hard Work Is Rewarding C. How to Be Organized D. Learning to Be Roommates D A complaint was received by the president of a major car company:“This is the fourth time I have written to you, and I don’t blame you for not answering me because I must sound crazy, but it is a fact that we have a tradition in our family of having ice-cream for dessert after dinner each night. Every night after we’ve eaten, the family votes on which flavor(味道)of ice-cream we should have and I drive down to the store to get it. I recently purchased a new Pantsmobile from your company and since then my trips to the store have created a problem. You see, every time I buy vanilla(香草)ice-cream my car won’t start. If I get any other kind of ice-cream, the car starts just fine. I want you to know I’m serious about this question, no matter how silly it sounds: What is there about a Pantsmobile that makes it not start when I get vanilla ice-cream, and easy to start whenever I get any other kind?” The Pantsmobile company president understandably doubted about the letter, but he sent an engineer there anyway. The engineer had arranged to meet the man just after dinner time, so the two got into the car and drove to the grocery store. The man bought vanilla ice-cream that night and sure enough, after they came back to the car it wouldn’t start for several minutes. The engineer returned for three more nights. The first night, the man got chocolate. The car started right away. The second night, he got strawberry and again the car started right up. The third night he bought vanilla and the car failed to start. There must be a reason why the man’s car wouldn’t start when he bought vanilla ice-cream. What was it? After doing more research into the case, the engineer eventually found out the cause. Vanilla ice-cream was the most popular flavor and was on display in a little case near the express check out, while the other flavors were in the back of the store and took more time to choose and check out. This mattered because the man’s car was experiencing vapor(蒸汽) lock, which is excess(过度的) heat boiling the fuel in the fuel line and the resulting air bubbles(气泡) blocking the flow of fuel until the car has enough time to cool. When the car was running, there was enough pressure to move the bubbles along, but not when the car was trying to start. 32. What is the best title for the passage? A. After Dinner Ice-cream Comes B After Dinner Family Votes C. After Complaints Company Responds D. After Shopping Complaints Go 33. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “express” in paragraph 3? A. Rapid. B. Reliable. C. Various. D. Extra. 34. What advice should the car company give to such car owners? A. Walk to buy vanilla ice-cream every time. B. Leave your car working when buying vanilla ice-cream. C. Restart your car after it’s cool enough. D. Think twice before buying vanilla ice-cream. 35. What can we learn from the text? A. Even crazy-sounding problems are real. B. Chocolate helps fix vapor lock. C. Whoever loves doubt can be creative. D. The customer is always right. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to write an email?

What followed was one of the hardest times of my parents'life. Months passed with them meeting various doctors, visiting different hospitals, and knocking at the doorstep of every possible chance — all the time with Ted in their arms, since he wasn't able to walk on his own anymore. There were doubts of permanent paralysis（瘫痪）— the very mention of which was enough to break us down. From finding it extremely painful to walk, to not being able to get up on his own, and to not being able to stand at all, Ted's problem was worsening day by day. Most surprisingly, all this while, he was as strong as, perhaps, only children can be in such difficult times. During this period, it was not unusual for my mother to have sudden breakdowns. Once, she burst into tears while watching Ted playing joyfully. He wiped off her tears, and said, “Don't cry, mummy. See, I can stand and even run on my own!” Saying this, he tried to get up, stood on shaking legs for just about a few microseconds and fell down, only to be safely caught in the arms of my mom, who hugged him dearly and cried some more. This was the most heart-breaking thing that I had ever experienced. But it was also a powerful one for the simple fact that it was my little brother who taught us what life was all about—HOPE. Witnessing my brother's strong will and positive attitude inspired me as well. As a brother, I could not stand by doing nothing at all. Hope was burning in my heart when I had the idea to train my brother to walk again. I firmly believe Ted could stand up and walk as he used to. Whenever school was over, I would put Ted into a pushchair and tell my mom that we'd just go to the park. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In the park, I would put Ted one meter away from me, encouraging him to walk. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We agreed to keep this a secret from our parents until mom's birthday. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023-2024学年度高一年级第二学期第二次英语学科学情调研 (满分:150分，时间:120分钟) 注意事项: 1、答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2、回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the man suggest the woman do?

No one can really convey a message and just one hundred and forty characters. But according to researchers, our Twitter messages provide a valuable insight towards our diet and our health. Coffee, beer and pizza were the most talked about products on the social media platform. Starbucks also featured highly, followed by alcohol, which increases the risk of some types of cancer. Researchers from the university of Utah assessed around eighty million Twitter messages sent between mid two thousand and fourteen and mid two thousand and fifteen only to find four million which had mentioned food or drink. Besides, researchers found messages from poor areas were less likely to mention healthy foods while people living in developed areas were more likely to talk about fast food. The study also found the areas which talked more about walking, dancing and running, had fewer deaths in lower rates of being overweight. 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Fun Day To celebrate the Year of the Sheep Organized by LamTin Youth Centre and Kwun Tong High School Date: 22 February 2015 Time: 10 am — 5 pm Place: Kwun Tong Playground Fee: $20 (buy three get one free) Programmes: drama, lion dance, magic show and ballet performance Highlights: 1) enter the lucky draw (抽奖) to win a digital camera 2) learn to make festival food Join us on the Fun Day!

The Transportation Department is mapping out a new plan for the city’s parking system. There are one million cars on the road in Shanghai but only enough public parking space to provide room for 15percent of them. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park. The city is seeing a rise in private car owners. In March, the city sent out 2,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. And prices rose to 14,600 yuan, 500 more than in February. Industry experts say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars. By the year 2020, the number of automobiles in Shanghai will probably reach two million. If one parking lot is for each car, then a lot of parking space should be built for these vehicles. Downtown Shanghai is most short of parking space. However, experts point out that simply building more parking lots in downtown areas is not practical and doesn’t provide an ideal solution. The idea of “Park & Ride” system has been suggested. This means that drivers can leave their vehicles in car par nearby subway or bus stations and ride public transport to go downtown. Based on this idea, the city will limit the number of parking lots in downtown areas and demand higher parking fees but build more parking areas near main subway and bus stops. 24. The underlined phrase “mapping out ” in the first paragraph means __________. A. making B. arguing C. controlling D. inspiring 25. About __________ drivers can find places to park their cars in Shanghai now. A. 850,000 B. 1,000,000 C. 150,000 D. 2,000,000 26. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us ? A. The city sent out more private licenses in February. B. Less and less people bought cars in March. C. The city sent out less private licenses in March. D. More and more people are going to buy cars. 27. According to the idea of a “Park & Ride” system, the city will __________. A. send out more private car licenses B. build more parking lots near bus stops C. encourage people to buy more cars D. build more parking areas in downtown 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了上海遇见的停车难的问题，以及提出的一个新的解决方法——The idea of “ Park & Ride” system。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Parking has long been a major headache for drivers in Shanghai.(长期以来，停车一直是困扰上海司机的一大难题。)”以及空后“a new plan for the city’s parking system(城市停车系统的新计划)”可知，面对上海长久以来停车难的问题，交通部正在制定一个新的停车系统的计划，mapping out意为“制定”，与making意思一致。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“There are one million cars on the road in Shanghai but only enough public parking space to provide room for 15percent of them. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park.(上海道路上有100万辆汽车，但公共停车位只能容纳其中的15%。难怪当地的司机在找地方停车时如此担心。)”可知上海现有100万辆车，但是只有15%的车位，由此可知，只有15%的司机，即150, 000位（100*15%=150, 000）司机现在可以找到停车的地方。故选C。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。通读第二段“The city is seeing a rise in private car owners. In March, the city sent out 2,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. And prices rose to 14,600 yuan, 500 more than in February. Industry experts say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars.(这个城市的私家车车主正在增加。今年3月，北京市发放了2000张私家车牌照，是单月发放牌照数量最多的一次。价格上涨至1.46万元，比2月份上涨了500元。业内专家表示，这表明当地人对购买汽车有着强烈而积极的兴趣。)”可知，第二段主要阐述现在越来越多的人要买车。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The idea of “Park & Ride” system has been suggested. This means that drivers can leave their vehicles in car par nearby subway or bus stations and ride public transport to go downtown. Based on this idea, the city will limit the number of parking lots in downtown areas and demand higher parking fees but build more parking areas near main subway and bus stops.(‘停车换乘’系统的概念已经被提出。这意味着司机可以把车停在附近的地铁站或公交车站，乘坐公共交通工具前往市中心。以此为基础，这个城市将限制市中心停车场的数量，并要求提高停车费，但在主要地铁和公交车站附近增加停车场。)”可知，根据“停车换乘”概念，上海将会限制市中心停车场的数量并要求提高停车费，在公交车站附近建更多停车场。故选B。 C I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her things had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier (更脏乱的). She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other. War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Then, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started shouting. She shouted back louder. The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, crying. Obviously, she could not go through that alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and the floor, even on her side. I was so buried in my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried with her expression of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to hold mine. I looked up into her eyes. she smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned how to live together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on. 28. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed? A. By explaining causes. B. By describing a process. C. By showing differences. D. By following time order. 29. What made Kate so angry one evening? A. She couldn’t find her books. B. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed. C.

My Friend Kate B. Hard Work Is Rewarding C. How to Be Organized D. Learning to Be Roommates 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，本文讲述了作者与室友生活习惯迥异，冲突在所难免．在室友遭遇悲痛之时，作者以实际行动表达自己的同情，从而达成和好．作者从中懂得一个道理：让步、整理房间和坚持是处理室友关系的关键。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her things had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier (更脏乱的). She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.(我从来都不太整洁，而我的室友Kate却非常有条理。她的每件东西都有自己的位置，但我的东西总是藏在某个地方。她甚至把每样东西都贴上标签。我总是寻找一切。随着时间的推移，Kate变得更整洁，而我变得更凌乱。她把我的脏衣服推开，我把书放在她整洁的桌子上。我们都厌倦了对方)”可知，第一段主要是通过展现作者和Kate的不同展开叙述的，故选C。 29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, ‘Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!’(一天晚上，战争爆发了。Kate走进房间。很快，我听到她尖叫道：‘把你的鞋子拿走！为什么在我床底下！’)”可知，Kate看见作者的鞋子在她床下面，所以非常生气，故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, crying. (从她谈话的最后，我马上就能看出她奶奶病得很重。当她挂断电话时，她迅速爬到被子下面哭了起来)”和“All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart.(突然，一种温暖的同情之情在我心中升起)”可知，作者整理房间是出于对室友悲伤的同情而表达自己的关切，故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容，结合最后一段中“We didn’t always agree, but we learned how to live together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.(我们并不总是意见一致，但我们学会了如何共同生活：让步，清理和坚持)”可知，文章最后作者表达了自己叙述这个故事的意图：就是懂得了与室友相处的关键，D项“学会做室友”为最佳标题，故选D。 D A complaint was received by the president of a major car company:“This is the fourth time I have written to you, and I don’t blame you for not answering me because I must sound crazy, but it is a fact that we have a tradition in our family of having ice-cream for dessert after dinner each night. Every night after we’ve eaten, the family votes on which flavor(味道)of ice-cream we should have and I drive down to the store to get it. I recently purchased a new Pantsmobile from your company and since then my trips to the store have created a problem. You see, every time I buy vanilla(香草)ice-cream my car won’t start. If I get any other kind of ice-cream, the car starts just fine. I want you to know I’m serious about this question, no matter how silly it sounds: What is there about a Pantsmobile that makes it not start when I get vanilla ice-cream, and easy to start whenever I get any other kind?” The Pantsmobile company president understandably doubted about the letter, but he sent an engineer there anyway. The engineer had arranged to meet the man just after dinner time, so the two got into the car and drove to the grocery store. The man bought vanilla ice-cream that night and sure enough, after they came back to the car it wouldn’t start for several minutes. The engineer returned for three more nights. The first night, the man got chocolate. The car started right away. The second night, he got strawberry and again the car started right up. The third night he bought vanilla and the car failed to start. There must be a reason why the man’s car wouldn’t start when he bought vanilla ice-cream. What was it? After doing more research into the case, the engineer eventually found out the cause. Vanilla ice-cream was the most popular flavor and was on display in a little case near the express check out, while the other flavors were in the back of the store and took more time to choose and check out. This mattered because the man’s car was experiencing vapor(蒸汽) lock, which is excess(过度的) heat boiling the fuel in the fuel line and the resulting air bubbles(气泡) blocking the flow of fuel until the car has enough time to cool. When the car was running, there was enough pressure to move the bubbles along, but not when the car was trying to start. 32. What is the best title for the passage? A. After Dinner Ice-cream Comes B. After Dinner Family Votes C. After Complaints Company Responds D. After Shopping Complaints Go 33. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “express” in paragraph 3? A. Rapid. B. Reliable. C. Various. D. Extra. 34. What advice should the car company give to such car owners? A. Walk to buy vanilla ice-cream every time. B. Leave your car working when buying vanilla ice-cream. C. Restart your car after it’s cool enough. D. Think twice before buying vanilla ice-cream. 35. What can we learn from the text? A. Even crazy-sounding problems are real. B. Chocolate helps fix vapor lock. C. Whoever loves doubt can be creative. D. The customer is always right. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述的是一家大型汽车公司的总裁收到了一份很奇怪的投诉，但他没有忽视这个投诉，而是派了一个工程师去查明原因。文章告诉我们“即使是听起来很疯狂的问题都是真实的”。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句The Pantsmobile company president understandably doubted about the letter, but he sent an engineer there anyway.和第三段第一句There must be a reason why the man’s car wouldn’t start when he bought vanilla ice-cream.可知，本文讲述的是一家大型汽车公司的总裁收到了一份投诉之后的回应，故C项正确。 【33题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中Vanilla ice-cream was the most popular flavor and was on display in a little case near the express check out, while the other flavors were in the back of the store and took more time to choose and check out.(香草冰淇淋是最受欢迎的口味，在快速结账的小盒子附近陈列，而其他的口味则放在商店的后面，要花更多的时间来挑选和结账)，根据while可知，前后形成对比，后面说其他口味需要花更多的时间挑选和结账，所以前面应该是快速结账，故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中This mattered because the man’s car was experiencing vapor(蒸汽) lock, which is excess(过度的) heat boiling the fuel in the fuel line and the resulting air bubbles(气泡) blocking the flow of fuel until the car has enough time to cool.可知，汽车公司应该向这些车主提供的建议是“在足够冷却之后重新启动你的汽车。”故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中I want you to know I’m serious about this question, no matter how silly it sounds: What is there about a Pantsmobile that makes it not start when I get vanilla ice-cream, and easy to start whenever I get any other kind?推知，即使是听起来很疯狂的问题都是真实的。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to write an email? While many people are accessible by email, sometimes it is difficult to determine how exactly to write an email to them. Here are some tips for you to follow. Write an appropriate subject line. The subject line should tell the recipient (接收者) immediately what the email is about. ____36____ Remember that your wording also has to be brief. ____37____ It is best to be more formal rather than informal, so when writing to someone you have never met or written to before, a “Dear Jane Smith” is appropriate. When addressing someone whom you are a little familiar with, a “Dr. Smith” is okay until they tell you to address them by their first name, in which case a simple “Jane” will be okay. ____38____ Within the first two sentences of your email, your recipient should know exactly why you are writing to him. Sometimes an introduction may have to precede (先于) the sentence that states why you are writing, and sometimes it has to follow. Use appropriate language. You may be used to using informal language in certain social settings. ____39____Even when dealing with colleagues or friends you are familiar with, do not immediately fall back on informal language. Keep it simple. People may get dozens and even hundreds of emails a day.____40____ In that way, they can save much of their time when reading emails. A. Use proper greetings. B. Express your ideas clearly. C. State your purpose at the beginning. D. Be as specific as possible when writing the subject. E. However, an email may not be the best place to use such language. F. It is important to check the language to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes. G. It is always easier for them if you keep your email as short and brief as possible. 【答案】36. D 37. A 38. C 39. E 40. G 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，在日常生活中电子邮件非常普及，但是很多人都不知道如何写一封好的电子邮件，本文中给出了五条相关的建议。 【36题详解】 根据横线前句“The subject line should tell the recipient (接收者) immediately what the email is about.”可知电子邮件的主题行要让接受者很快就明白邮件内容，所以主题行内容要写得尽量清楚。所以D选择项Be as specific as possible when writing the subject.( 写主题的时候要尽可能具体。)符合上下文语境。故选D。 【37题详解】 横线后两句介绍了对于熟悉的人，应该如何称呼；对于不熟悉的人，应该如何称呼。所以本段应该与如何称呼邮件的接收方有关。所以A选择项Use proper greetings(使用适当的问候。)符合本段中心思想。故选A。 【38题详解】 根据本段第一句Within the first two sentences of your email, your recipient should know exactly why you are writing to him.可知在邮件前两句中，你要让接受者明确知道你写信的原因。也就是说在邮件开头部分说明你的写信目的。所以C选择项State your purpose at the beginning.( 一开始就说明你的目的。)符合上下文语境。故选C。 【39题详解】 根据本段最后一句Even when dealing with colleagues or friends you are familiar with, do not immediately fall back on informal language.可知即使在处理同事或朋友的邮件时，也不要用非正式的语言。也就是说在邮件里尽量不要使用非正式的用语。所以E选择项It is important to check the language to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes. (然而，电子邮件可能不是使用这种语言的最佳场所。)符合上下文语境。故选E。 【40题详解】 根据横线前句People may get dozens and even hundreds of emails a day.可知人们一天中可能会处理成百上千封邮件，你邮件要尽可能地简洁明了。而且本段的建议是“Keep it simple.”，所以G选择项It is always easier for them if you keep your email as short and brief as possible（如果你保持你的邮件是尽可能简洁短小对于他们而言，也是更容易阅读的)既与本段主旨相符也与上下文语境一致。且选项中“brief"与题干中”simple“相互呼应，故选G。 【点睛】本文通过后句列举处理同事或朋友的邮件的例子，告诉我们在邮件里尽量不要使用非正式的用语。故E项符合上下文语境。从解题技巧来说属于从细节逻辑上判断---例证关系。 前后句的某句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。例证的形式多样，但就其本质而言无非是思维上的形象（例子、类比等）和抽象（观点）的辩证关系，用到的思维过程无非就是基本的归纳（从例子到观点）和推理（从观点到例子）。 第三部分 语言运用(共三节，满分30分) 第一节 完型填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On August 26, 1999, New York City was struck by a terrible rainstorm.

What followed was one of the hardest times of my parents'life. Months passed with them meeting various doctors, visiting different hospitals, and knocking at the doorstep of every possible chance — all the time with Ted in their arms, since he wasn't able to walk on his own anymore. There were doubts of permanent paralysis（瘫痪）— the very mention of which was enough to break us down. From finding it extremely painful to walk, to not being able to get up on his own, and to not being able to stand at all, Ted's problem was worsening day by day. Most surprisingly, all this while, he was as strong as, perhaps, only children can be in such difficult times. During this period, it was not unusual for my mother to have sudden breakdowns. Once, she burst into tears while watching Ted playing joyfully. He wiped off her tears, and said, “Don't cry, mummy. See, I can stand and even run on my own!” Saying this, he tried to get up, stood on shaking legs for just about a few microseconds and fell down, only to be safely caught in the arms of my mom, who hugged him dearly and cried some more. This was the most heart-breaking thing that I had ever experienced. But it was also a powerful one for the simple fact that it was my little brother who taught us what life was all about—HOPE. Witnessing my brother's strong will and positive attitude inspired me as well. As a brother, I could not stand by doing nothing at all. Hope was burning in my heart when I had the idea to train my brother to walk again. I firmly believe Ted could stand up and walk as he used to. Whenever school was over, I would put Ted into a pushchair and tell my mom that we'd just go to the park. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In the park, I would put Ted one meter away from me, encouraging him to walk. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We agreed to keep this a secret from our parents until mom's birthday. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】In the park, I would put Ted one meter away from me, encouraging him to walk. His initial attempts were shaky, and he would often fall in my arms after just a couple of steps. I kept telling him that each small step was a victory. During that tough time, we had gone through countless days of helplessness, breakdowns and despair. We celebrated every attempt and every inch forward, becoming full of hope for the future. I knew that this was more than just physical training, it was a lesson in perseverance for both of us. Gradually, His legs began to gain strength, and his falls became less frequent. We agreed to keep this a secret from our parents until mom's birthday. We wanted to give her the most memorable gift—a miracle we had been working on. As the day approached, Ted's steps became more confident and his falls became fewer. On mom's birthday, we led our parents to the living room where Ted was waiting, standing on his own. With a signal, he started walking towards mom, his every step a testament to his incredible courage. The look of shock and joy on our parents' faces was indescribable. Tears streamed down my mom's cheeks as she watched Ted walk into her arms. It was a moment of triumph, a celebration of hope, and the best birthday present we could have ever given. Our secret training had paid off, and Ted's journey was a reminder to all of us that hope, combined with action, can lead to miracles. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的弟弟5、6岁的时候，有一天晚上突然发现他的腿不能动了。这段时期成为了一家人最艰难的时期，弟弟如此的坚强，也使得作者领悟到了生活的真谛。作者决定帮助弟弟，带领弟弟秘密训练。 【详解】1.段落续写： 由第一段首句内容“在公园里，我会把泰德放在离我一米远的地方，鼓励他走路。”可知，第一段可描写弟弟的努力、作者的鼓励以及弟弟的腿开始有力气了，摔倒的次数也少了。 ②由第二段首句内容“我们说好在妈妈生日之前不让父母知道这个秘密。”可知，第二段可描写作者完成比赛，吃到了巧克力棒。 2.续写线索：跌倒——作者鼓励——摔倒次数减少——在父母面前走路——父母感动——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 庆祝：celebrate /observe 获得：gain/acquire 开始：start /begin 导致：lead to /result in 情绪类 自信的：confident/ self-assurance 难以置信的：incredible/ unbelievable 【点睛】[高分句型1] As the day approached, Ted's steps became more confident and his falls became fewer.
