It happens from time to time that after a whole morning of studyingyou are tired in the afternoon. It’s then that you might want to eat something sweet, perhaps a chocolate bar to lift your mood. After all, it’s popularly believed that a “sugar rush” gives us energy.
But a study published in Neuroscience& Biobehavioral Reviews suggests that sugar can make us feel worse rather than boost our moods.
The German and UK researchers collected data from 31 studies involving nearly 1, 300 adults. They studied the effect of sugar on various aspects of the mood, including anger, depression and tiredness. They found that people who have too much sugar become more tired within an hour, and that these feelings become more intense (强烈的) over time.
According to the researchers, when people take in sugar, their blood sugar levels rise rapidly, leading to a burst of energy and a short period of feeling good. However, as they begin to digest (消化) the sugar, their blood sugar levels decrease quickly, leading to a bad feeling.
To remain on a “high”, people are likely to eat more and more sugar until they become addicted to it. As with caffeine, this prevents the body from relaxing, leaving people feeling tired.
But the study findings don’t mean we must give up sweet food altogether. According to the World Health Organization, it is healthy to have the sugars found naturally in fruit, vegetables and milk, as long as these make up less than 5 percent of daily total energy intake.
So the next time you feel tired and can’t concentrate, perhaps you should think twice before you bite into a chocolate bar.
9. What does the underlined word “boost” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Improve. B. Harm.
C. Control. D. Ignore.
10. How do people feel after they have too much sugar according to the researchers?
A. They feel relaxed.
B. They feel more tired.
C. They are more focused.
D. They feel energetic.
11. What do we learn from paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. Our moods are connected with our blood sugar levels.
B. Taking in more sugar benefits mental health.
C. Getting caffeine is another way to refresh yourself.
D. Sugar and caffeine have quite different effects.
12. Where does this passage probably come from?
A. A sports report.
B. A health journal.
C. An economic report.
D. A medical newspaper.

Michael J. Fox was at the height of his career when he developed Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病) in 1991. Since then, he has been fighting the disease and has not lost his love for life.
After his diagnosis (诊断), Michael concealed his illness for several years in order not to risk his career as an actor. His diagnosis didn’t become public until 1999. To this day, he has done his best not to be influenced by his illness as much as possible and has worked both in front of the camera and as a voice actor.
Michael said in an interview with the American magazine Haute Living in 2016: “I realize now that I can play anybody, as long as they have Parkinson’s.” Like the role of “Louis Canning” in The Good Wife, which he played from 2010 to 2016. For his role of the lawyer (律师), who suffers from the side effects of medication(药物) to treat Parkinson’s, he was nominated (提名) five times for an Emmy.
Michael has shown the doctors who said that he would not be able to work ten years after the diagnosis that this is not the case He has found the right way to deal with Parkinson’s disease for him: Humor.
In an interview in March 2017, he joked about moments in his everyday life where he is controlled by his illness. “The thing that makes it funny to me is when I think about someone else watching all this and thinking, Poor Michael can’t even get the coffee — it’s so sad!”, explains the 59-year-old.
Since his diagnosis became public, Michael has devoted himself to Parkinson’s research. In 2000, he founded the Michael Foundation for Parkinson’s Research to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease. By the end of 2018, 800 million US dollars had already been collected.

Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ online habits couldn’t be more different. In the UK the over-55 s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55-64 and 2.9 million over-65s.
Sheila, aged 59, says, “I joined to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than waiting for letters and photos in the post. That’s how we did it when I was a child, but I think I’m lucky I get to see so much more of their lives than my grandparents did.”
Interestingly, Sheila’s grandchildren are less likely to use Facebook themselves. Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site - only 2.2 million users are under 17 -but they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. “It’s my alarm clock so I have to,’ she says. “I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon as I wake up.”
Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t heard from in forty years. ”We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she says. “It’s changed my social life completely.”
Parents have an important role to play if they want their kids to spend more time in real life. Peter, 38, who spends most of his time in front of a screen, is recently determined to set a better example to his kids. In the evening or at weekends, he would leave his smartphone home and take his kids out to nature.
17. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Older people have difficulty using social media.
B. Children spend more time with their grandparents.
C. More and more elderlies begin to use social media.
D. Social media have become more friendly to the elderly.
18. How does Sheila feel about social media?
A. Worried. B. Satisfied. C. Excited. D. Disappointed.
19. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. People tend to have less social life as they get older.
B. Young people are getting away from their smartphone.
C. More young people choose to meet their friends in person.
D. Social media actually help old people to meet their friends.
20. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Different Online Habits Across Generations B. The Good Old Days Without Smartphones
C. The Next Generation of Social Media D. The Use of Smartphones at School

My great-grandmother Eileen is ambitious (有雄心的), determined, loyal, strong and a bit of legend (传奇) in her own lifetime, which now reaches 92 years. I should add that we’re not allowed to call her Gran, because she says it makes her feel old.
That summer, I lost my job and felt hopeless. One day. I paid a visit to her. On my arrival, seeing my low spirits, she asked me whether I had prepared to get a new start. I just kept silent. Without any more words, she picked up a box which she placed on the coffee table, saying “You do know what you’re doing with these things, don’t you?”
It was a new phone Her current mobile was pretty ancient.
“Yes.” I said.
“Good. That’s why I ask you. You young people know more about such things than us oldies. You can take it home and get it all set up,” she went on. “Then, when you bring it back, show me how to use my new phone, such as getting on the Internet, sending e-mails and so on.” She smiled so sweetly. Setting up the phone would be easy, but teaching her how to use it might be challenging.
The following day I headed back to my great-grandmother’s with the phone. “Here’s your phone. It’s all ready to use.”
For the next hour, I was busy setting up her passcode (密码) and fingerprint recognition, which she said was like something out of James Bond.
When I finally got her to swipe (滑动屏幕), she didn’t put the right amount of pressure on and the menu slipped away. After what seemed like hours, she threw the phone across the room and it landed on the sofa. “Take it easy!” she howled. “I want my old phone back!”
I picked up the phone and was about to leave to give her time to cool down when I realized I didn’t want to go home when she was angry.
注意:1. 续写词数应为100左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Come on. Eileen. One more try.” I said.

But a study published in Neuroscience& Biobehavioral Reviews suggests that sugar can make us feel worse rather than boost our moods.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了发表在《神经科学与生物行为评论》上的一项研究表明,糖会让我们感觉更糟,而不是改善我们的情绪。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。rather than表示“而不是”,boost和上文“feel worse(感觉糟糕)”意思相反,boost意为“改善”。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“They found that people who have too much sugar become more tired within an hour, and that these feelings become more intense (强烈的) over time.( 他们发现,摄入过多糖分的人在一小时内就会变得更累,而且随着时间的推移,这种感觉会变得更强烈。)”可知,研究人员称,摄入过多糖分会让人感觉更累。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“According to the researchers, when people take in sugar, their blood sugar levels rise rapidly, leading to a burst of energy and a short period of feeling good. However, as they begin to digest (消化) the sugar, their blood sugar levels decrease quickly, leading to a bad feeling.(研究人员称,当人们摄入糖分时,他们的血糖水平会迅速上升,导致能量爆发,并在短时间内感觉良好。然而,当他们开始消化糖分时,他们的血糖水平会迅速下降,导致不好的感觉。)”可知,我们的情绪与我们的血糖水平有关。故选A。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But a study published in Neuroscience& Biobehavioral Reviews suggests that sugar can make us feel worse rather than boost our moods.( 但发表在《神经科学与生物行为评论》上的一项研究表明,糖会让我们感觉更糟,而不是改善我们的情绪。)”可知,文章讲述了发表在《神经科学与生物行为评论》上的一项研究表明,糖会让我们感觉更糟,而不是改善我们的情绪。由此可推知,文章可能出自一本健康杂志。故选B。

Michael J. Fox was at the height of his career when he developed Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病) in 1991. Since then, he has been fighting the disease and has not lost his love for life.
After his diagnosis (诊断), Michael concealed his illness for several years in order not to risk his career as an actor. His diagnosis didn’t become public until 1999. To this day, he has done his best not to be influenced by his illness as much as possible and has worked both in front of the camera and as a voice actor.
Michael said in an interview with the American magazine Haute Living in 2016: “I realize now that I can play anybody, as long as they have Parkinson’s.” Like the role of “Louis Canning” in The Good Wife, which he played from 2010 to 2016. For his role of the lawyer (律师), who suffers from the side effects of medication(药物) to treat Parkinson’s, he was nominated (提名) five times for an Emmy.
Michael has shown the doctors who said that he would not be able to work ten years after the diagnosis that this is not the case. He has found the right way to deal with Parkinson’s disease for him: Humor.
In an interview in March 2017, he joked about moments in his everyday life where he is controlled by his illness. “The thing that makes it funny to me is when I think about someone else watching all this and thinking, Poor Michael can’t even get the coffee — it’s so sad!”, explains the 59-year-old.
Since his diagnosis became public, Michael has devoted himself to Parkinson’s research. In 2000, he founded the Michael Foundation for Parkinson’s Research to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease. By the end of 2018, 800 million US dollars had already been collected.
13. What does the underlined word “concealed” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Hid. B. Feared. C. Refused to treat. D. Paid no attention to.
14. What made Michael’s role of the lawyer successful?
A. Their similar personalities. B. Their similar experiences.
C. Michael’s handsome appearance. D. Michael’s dream of being a lawyer.
15. Which of the following can best describe Michael?
A. Confident and easy-going. B. Patient and honest.
C. Tough and positive. D. Independent and open-minded.
16. What did Michael do for Parkinson’s disease?
A. He provided money for those with it.
B. He called on people to face it bravely.
C. He established a center to treat people with it.
D. He tried to raise money to support research on it.
【答案】13. A 14. B 15. C 16. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。短文介绍了患有帕金森病的Michael J. Fox的个人经历。

词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“in order not to risk his career as an actor. His diagnosis didn’t become public until 1999.”(以免自己的演员生涯受到威胁。他的诊断结果直到1999年才公之于众)可知,在确诊后,迈克尔隐瞒了自己的病情好几年。所以划线词的意思是“隐瞒”,与“hide”同义。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Michael J. Fox was at the height of his career when he developed Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病) in 1991”(1991年, Michael J. Fox患上帕金森氏症,当时他正处于事业的巅峰)、第三段“I realize now that I can play anybody, as long as they have Parkinson’s.”(我现在意识到,我可以扮演任何人,只要他们有帕金森病)和“For his role of the lawyer (律师), who suffers from the side effects of medication(药物) to treat Parkinson’s, he was nominated (提名) five times for an Emmy.”(因为他扮演一名患有帕金森病药物副作用的律师,他五次获得艾美奖提名)可知,律师角色的成功源于迈克尔与他所扮演的角色的相似经历。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“After his diagnosis (诊断), Michael concealed his illness for several years in order not to risk his career as an actor. His diagnosis didn’t become public until 1999. To this day, he has done his best not to be influenced by his illness as much as possible and has worked both in front of the camera and as a voice actor.”(在确诊后,迈克尔隐瞒了自己的病情好几年,以免自己的演员生涯受到威胁。他的诊断结果直到1999年才公之于众。直到今天,他尽可能地不受疾病的影响,既做过镜头前的工作,也做过配音演员)可知,他很坚韧;根据第四段“He has found the right way to deal with Parkinson’s disease for him: Humor.”(找到了对付帕金森氏症的正确方法:幽默。)可知,他很积极乐观。故选C项。
【16题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Since his diagnosis became public, Michael has devoted himself to Parkinson’s research. In 2000, he founded the Michael Foundation for Parkinson’s Research to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease. By the end of 2018, 800 million US dollars had already been collected.”(自从诊断结果公布后,迈克尔就投身于帕金森病的研究。2000年,他创立了迈克尔帕金森氏症研究基金会,以寻找帕金森病的治疗方法。截至2018年底,已募集资金8亿美元。)可知,他努力筹集资金来支持帕金森病的研究。故选D项。
D
Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ online habits couldn’t be more different. In the UK the over-55 s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55-64 and 2.9 million over-65s.
Sheila, aged 59, says, “I joined to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than waiting for letters and photos in the post. That’s how we did it when I was a child, but I think I’m lucky I get to see so much more of their lives than my grandparents did.”
Interestingly, Sheila’s grandchildren are less likely to use Facebook themselves. Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site - only 2.2 million users are under 17 -but they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. “It’s my alarm clock so I have to,’ she says. “I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon as I wake up.”
Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t heard from in forty years. ”We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she says. “It’s changed my social life completely.”
Parents have an important role to play if they want their kids to spend more time in real life. Peter, 38, who spends most of his time in front of a screen, is recently determined to set a better example to his kids. In the evening or at weekends, he would leave his smartphone home and take his kids out to nature.
17. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Older people have difficulty using social media.
B. Children spend more time with their grandparents.
C. More and more elderlies begin to use social media.
D. Social media have become more friendly to the elderly.
18. How does Sheila feel about social media?
A. Worried. B. Satisfied. C. Excited. D. Disappointed.
19. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. People tend to have less social life as they get older.
B. Young people are getting away from their smartphone.
C. More young people choose to meet their friends in person.
D. Social media actually help old people to meet their friends.
20. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Different Online Habits Across Generations B. The Good Old Days Without Smartphones
C. The Next Generation of Social Media D. The Use of Smartphones at School
【答案】17. C 18. B 19. D 20. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。如今,祖父母和孙辈都在使用社交媒体,但不同代人的上网习惯却截然不同。文章通过举例说明了老年人和他们的孙辈使用社交媒体的不同习惯,以及对社交媒体的看法。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ online habits couldn’t be more different. In the UK the over-5 5 s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55-64 and 2.9 million over-65s.(如今,祖父母和孙辈都在使用社交媒体,但不同代人的上网习惯却截然不同。在英国,55岁以上的用户越来越多,这意味着他们很快将成为该网站的第二大用户群体,55-64岁的用户有350万,65岁以上的用户有290万)”可知,越来越多的老年人开始使用社交媒体。故选C。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Sheila, aged 59, says, “I joined to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than waiting for letters and photos in the post. That’s how we did it when I was a child, but I think I’m lucky I get to see so much more of their lives than my grandparents did.”(59岁的希拉说:“我加入是为了看看我的孙子们在做什么,因为我的女儿上传了他们的视频和照片。这是一种比等待信件和照片更好的方式来了解他们在做什么。当我还是个孩子的时候,我们就是这样做的,但我觉得我很幸运,我能比我的祖父母看到更多他们的生活。”)”可推知,希拉对社交媒体感到满意。故选B。
【19题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t heard from in forty years. “We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she says. “It’s changed my social life completely.”(另一方面,希拉和学校里的老朋友取得了联系,她已经40年没有联系了。她说:“我们用Facebook在全国各地安排见面。这完全改变了我的社交生活。”)”可推知,社交媒体实际上帮助老年人认识他们的朋友。故选D。
【20题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ online habits couldn’t be more different.(如今,祖父母和孙辈都在使用社交媒体,但不同代人的上网习惯却截然不同)”结合文章通过举例说明了老年人和他们的孙辈使用社交媒体的不同习惯,以及对社交媒体的看法。可知,A选项“几代人的上网习惯不同”最符合文章标题。故选A。

技巧2:作主语、在及物动词或介词后作宾语,用名词形式。如:【例】These people have made great ______ (contribute) to China with their work. 解析:在句中作及物动词have made的宾语,要用名词形式;表示“作贡献”,其前面没有不定冠词时,习惯上用复数,故填contributions。
技巧3:在形容词性物主代词后,或者在“冠词(+形容词)”后,用名词形式。如:【例】 …the remains date from this period because of their ______ (similar) to those found elsewhere.解析:在形容词性物代词(their)后应当用名词,故填similarities。
技巧4:修饰动词、形容词、副词,或整个句子,作状语,用副词形式。如:【例】 There must be something ______ (serious) wrong with our society.解析:要求填的词修饰形容词wrong,作状语,用副词,故填seriously。
技巧5:括号中所给词有可能是要求词义转换,词类不一定要变,主要是考查具有与词根意义相反的派生词,需根据句子意思及前后逻辑关系,在词根前加un—, im—等,在词根后加—less等。【例】Your mistake caused a lot of ________ (necessary) work in the office.解析:在名词前作定语,仍用形容词形式;但根据句意可知,错误是引起不必要的麻烦事,故填unnecessary。
第三节 根据要求,写出对应单词的正确形式(共 10小题,每空 1分,共 10分)
51. The spare time ________ ______ the children should be returned to them by the teachers.
老师应归还属于孩子们的课余时间。
【答案】 ①. belonging ②. to
【解析】
【详解】考查短语。中英文对比,可知缺少“属于”。belong to属于,在句中作定语,与先行词The spare time 之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词形式作后置定语。故填belonging to。
52. She was happy enough with her ________ (perform). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】performance
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:她对自己的表现很满意。介词with后应用名词performance作宾语,根据句意,用单数。故填performance。
53. There is a general __________ (believe) that things will soon get better. (所给单词适当形式填空)
【答案】belief
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:人们普遍认为情况很快就会好转。分析句子成分可知,该句使用了There be句型,“a general __________”作主语,故应用名词,根据其前的不定冠词a可知,应用单数形式,故填belief。
54. She had ________ (absolute) no idea what she was talking about. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】absolutely
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意:她完全不知道自己在说什么。修饰动词短语had no idea用副词absolutely作状语。故填absolutely。
55. China is a large ________ (agriculture) country. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】agricultural
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:中国是一个农业大国。此处修饰名词应用形容词。故填agricultural。
56. The dove ________ (代表) peace. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】represents
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态。句意:鸽⼦代表和平。“代表”表达为动词 represent,陈述客观事实⽤⼀般现在时,主语为单数名词,故谓语动词⽤第三⼈称单数形式。故填 represents。
57. A healthy skin is a ________(反映) of good health in general. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】reflection
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意: 健康的皮肤是整体健康的反映。根据词义“反映”可知,使用名词reflection,它在句子中作表语,前有不定冠词a限制,单数形式,故填reflection。

【答案】convenience
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:请在方便的时候尽早将提供给您的材料退回以供审批。根据词义“方便”可知,使用名词convenience,它在句子中作宾语,为不可数名词,故填convenience。
59. I was quite anxious when breaking the vase by accident. To my ________ (宽慰、轻松), my mother didn’t scold me but forgave my mistake. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】relief
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:不小心打碎了花瓶,我很着急。让我松了一口气的是,我母亲没有责备我,而是原谅了我的错误。根据词义“宽慰、轻松”可知,使用名词relief,它在句子中作宾语,它无需变复数,故填relief。

第二节(满分 15分)
61. 阅读下面短文,根据其内容和所给段落的开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My great-grandmother Eileen is ambitious (有雄心的), determined, loyal, strong and a bit of legend (传奇) in her own lifetime, which now reaches 92 years. I should add that we’re not allowed to call her Gran, because she says it makes her feel old.
That summer, I lost my job and felt hopeless. One day. I paid a visit to her. On my arrival, seeing my low spirits, she asked me whether I had prepared to get a new start. I just kept silent. Without any more words, she picked up a box which she placed on the coffee table, saying “You do know what you’re doing with these things, don’t you?”
It was a new phone. Her current mobile was pretty ancient.
“Yes.” I said.
“Good. That’s why I ask you. You young people know more about such things than us oldies. You can take it home and get it all set up,” she went on. “Then, when you bring it back, show me how to use my new phone, such as getting on the Internet, sending e-mails and so on.” She smiled so sweetly. Setting up the phone would be easy, but teaching her how to use it might be challenging.
The following day I headed back to my great-grandmother’s with the phone. “Here’s your phone. It’s all ready to use.”
For the next hour, I was busy setting up her passcode (密码) and fingerprint recognition, which she said was like something out of James Bond.
When I finally got her to swipe (滑动屏幕), she didn’t put the right amount of pressure on and the menu slipped away. After what seemed like hours, she threw the phone across the room and it landed on the sofa. “Take it easy!” she howled. “I want my old phone back!”
I picked up the phone and was about to leave to give her time to cool down when I realized I didn’t want to go home when she was angry.
注意:1. 续写词数应为100左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Come on Eileen. One more try.” I said.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“Come on, Eileen. One more try.” I said. “This time I’ll hold your finger and show you how much pressure to use. Guess what, it took me a while to get the hang of swiping.” added I. I held her finger gently and her face lit up when the menu appeared. “I can’t wait to show everyone my new phone,” she said happily. “Thank you for your patience, Tom.” I was not feeling so hopeless any more now. Great-grandma’s spirit inspired me greatly. It occurred to me that if a 92-year-old lady could learn new skills, then so could I. There must be a job out there for me somewhere and I was sure to find it. My great-grandmother would always be a role model for me to learn from.
