Other shipwrecks are themselves the treasure—the stories of their ill-fated voyages creating a legend that makes them sparkle far more than any gold or precious stones. The wreck of HMS Endurance, which has finally been located deep beneath the icy seas of Antarctica after being lost 107 years ago, was arguably the most valuable shipwreck ever sought. That’s because its discovery adds another thrilling new chapter to an already fascinating tale of perseverance and survival that has echoed down the decades and still inspires today. Incredibly well preserved at a depth of almost two miles, the ship is little changed from the day in November 1914 when it finally sank beneath the ice. Endurance became embedded in ice while crossing Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. The video shot by underwater search vehicles shows painted timbers, an undamaged guardrail（护栏）and the name “Endurance” written above the five-pointed symbol of a polar star. “I tell you, you would have to be made of stone not to feel a bit soft at the sight of that star and the name above,” Mensun Bound, the mission’s marine archaeologist, told the BBC. “You can see a porthole（舷窗）that is in Shackleton’s cabin. At that moment, you really do feel the breath of the great man upon the back of your neck.” Shackleton’s leadership was crucial to getting his men out alive. The reason why Shackleton is still applauded as a great man becomes obvious when you consider what he achieved in the face of disasters and hardships during his 1914-16 expedition. The practicality and humanity he showed in the face of severe situations was arguably praised. 1. What makes Endurance the most valuable shipwreck? A. The treasure aboard. B. Its inspiring stories. C. Its undamaged guardrail. D. The symbol of a polar star. 2. What can we infer from Mensun Bound’s words? A. The floating ice is as hard as stones. B. The well-preserved shipwreck is amazing. C. The heroic deeds of Shackleton are touching. D. The discovery of Endurance is challenging. 3. What is the text type of the passage? A. A book review. B. A news report. C. A biography. D. A travel journal. B In this age of cell phones, text messages and computer keyboards, one Scottish school has returned to basics. It’s teaching children the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen. There is no clicking of keyboards in most classrooms at the Mary Erskine and Stewart’s Melville Junior School, although there is a full range of facilities (设施) for computer lessons and technology isn’t being ignored. The school’s headmaster believes the old-fashioned pens have helped strengthen the academic performance and self-respect of his 1,200 pupils. “The pens improve the quality of work because they force the children to take care, and better work improves self-respect”, headmaster Bryan Lewis said. “Proper handwriting is as relevant today as it ever has been.” Students as young as 7 have been instructed to give up their ballpoint pens and begin to deal with the more artful predecessor. By the time they reach grade five, at age 9, they are expected to write mainly with fountain pens. Lewis said the school’s 7- and 8-year-olds use fountain pens for 80 percent to 90 percent of their work, returning to pencils for such subjects as math. “I don’t see fountain pens as old-fashioned or out of date. Modern fountain pens are beautiful to use. It’s not like in the old days of broken metal points and dirtying writing paper,” Lewis said. “We have a particular writing style and we have developed it very carefully and found a way that allows left- and right-handed people to write without dirtying paper.” Some people argue that handwriting is becoming less important because of the growing use of cell phone text messaging and typing on computers, but the school disagrees. “We talk of the paperless office and the paperless world, but this is not true,” Lewis said. “You still need to have proper handwriting skills.” 4. What can be inferred about the Scottish school? A. It does not think highly of modern technology. B. It values fountain pens more than anything else. C. It pays special attention to the use of fountain pens. D. It takes action which is considered stupid by many people. 5. What does the underlined word “predecessor” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The pencil. B. The keyboard. C. The ballpoint pen. D. The fountain pen. 6. Which of the following may be the view of the headmaster? A. Fountain pens have helped to build up students’ self-respect. B. Using fountain pens may slow down students’ speed of writing. C. Handwriting skills are more important than typing skills nowadays. D. Children should be required to use fountain pens when they are five. 7. What’s the main idea of this passage? A. Schools should stay away from tech. B. Old-fashioned fountain pens are coming back. C. Fountain pens strengthen academic performance. D. Handwriting should not be ignored in modern times. C Cartoons suit the way we like information to be presented these days: vividly and in small amounts. We are used to cartoons and comic series that take a biting look at modern life or provide a bit of escapism. But recently we have seen an increase in the number of comic books: book-length comics with a single, continuous narrative. Historically, comic books were not popular outside France, Belgium, Japan, and the US. The exception is the worldwide popularity of a young reporter-detective from Belgium, Tintin. The creation of the Belgian cartoonist Herge, The Adventures of Tintin first appeared in a Belgian newspaper in 1929. Each story appeared as a cartoon series week by week, but soon after was republished in book form. One of the main attractions for readers was that they were taken to parts of the world they had never seen and probably never would: Russia, Congo, America. Herge himself only traveled outside Belgium later in life, but his passion was educating his readers about other cultures and places. Two things set Herge apart as a comic novelist. The first was his technical drawing skills: with just a few simple lines he could communicate a particular facial expression or movement. The second was the careful research he put into his stories. In The Crab with the Golden Claws, Tintin follows an opium-smuggling (鸦片走私) ring to North Africa; in King Ottakar’s Scepter, he makes an attempt at a military coup (政变) in a central European country. While telling these stories, Herge also made a fine balance between serious topics and humor. Tintin had more than his fair share of adventures, but perhaps the greatest is his journey to the Moon, told in Destination Moon and Explorers on the Moon. Written in 1953, sixteen years before the first Moon landing, the stories show a remarkable eye for technical detail and feeling for the nature of space travel. In the early 1950s, few could imagine what it was like to be looking down at our planet from outer space. And that is Herge’s true gift: to understand what a place was like without ever having been there. 8. What can be learned about comic books from the passage? A. They mostly involve detective stories. B. They present information in small amounts. C. They are taking a positive look at modern life. D. They were popular outside Belgium historically. 9. Which of the following was an attraction of The Adventures of Tintin for readers? A. The stories were the first comic novel published in book form. B. The stories used to be cartoon series that appeared week by week. C. The stories had a good balance between serious topics and humor. D. The stories enabled them to learn about places they had never been to. 10. Why are The Crab with the Golden Claws and King Ottakar’s Scepter taken for examples? A. To show Herge had a good sense of humor. B. To show Herge liked touching on serious topics. C. To illustrate Herge based stories on research results. D. To illustrate Herge was expert at technical drawing skills. 11. Which of the following can best describe Herge according to the passage? A. Creative. B. Devoted. C. Serious. D. Humorous. D Solar panels — also known as “photovoltaic” panels — are used to turn sunlight into electricity. Most solar panels are placed on land in large collections called solar farms. But recently people have begun to explore putting floating solar panels on water. Because these panels float, some people call them “floatovoltaics”. The idea isn’t as unusual as it might seem. After all, any solar panel has to be waterproof, since it will be out in the rain. There are already several large floatovoltaic farms in Asia. On land, so panels are held up by special frames (框架). On the water, floatovoltaics are placed on a floating platform attached to the bottom of a lake or reservoir (水库). Floating solar panels cost about 25% more than those placed on land. The researchers behind the new study looked at 145,555 reservoirs worldwide. They used computer programs to figure out how much electricity could be produced yearly by covering 30% of these reservoirs with floating solar panels. The answer was surprisingly large — more than twice the amount of energy the United States generates in a year and 10 times as much energy as all the solar power currently being generated in the world. Floatovoltaics can also help save water by limiting evaporation (蒸发) from reservoirs. The scientists say that solar panels covering just 30% of the reservoirs’ surfaces could save as much water as 300 million people would use in a year. There are several other reasons that make floatovoltaics a good idea. Photovoltaic panels work better when they’re not extremely hot. The water helps cool the panels so that they create more energy. Floatovoltaics aren’t perfect. Covering too much of a reservoir with panels could affect the plants and animals in the water. The scientists say it will be important to study how floating panels will affect water in each reservoir. Focusing first on man-made reservoirs will avoid some of those problems. 12. What is the purpose of paragraph 2? A. To list solar panels’ unusual functions. B. To introduce the workability of floating solar panels. C. To show disadvantages of solar panels on land. D. To make a comparison between different solar panels. 13. How did researchers carry out the new study? A. By looking at reservoirs worldwide. B. By building floatovoltaic farms in the US. C. By making computer-aided estimates. D. By processing data given by specialists. 14. What do we know about floating solar panels? A. They may cause potential harm to water ecosystem. B. They will eventually replace photovoltaic panels. C. They function well in extreme hot weather. D. They are perfect except for the high cost. 15. What is the suitable title for the text? A. Floating Solar Panels — Our Final Choice B Floating Solar Panels — Taking Us Back to Water C. Floating Solar Panels — A New Way to Cool the Planet D. Floating Solar Panels — Making Energy, Saving Water 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Self-doubt happens to us during normal days or whenever we start something new.

There were the geeks, the jocks (小丑) , and the popular cool kids. I wasn’t sure where I belonged. And I think that was a problem. Our teacher had assigned “secret friends” for the coming week. The purpose of this assignment was to do nice things for your friend without letting them know who was doing it. We could leave encouraging notes on their desk or mysteriously leave a card in their backpack or book. Our teacher wrote each kid’s name on a piece of paper and threw them into a bucket, then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of the classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days. Everyone was excited to get involved, including Rochelle. By the middle of the week, we had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. Instead of encouraging notes, we left stationary sets on our friend’s desk. Instead of giving compliments, we were giving bubble gum, lollipops and even money. It seemed that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends. Everyone except me, that is. My secret friend followed our teacher’s directions without a fault. I received handmade cards, notes with nice thoughts and countless smiley face pictures saying that I was one of the nicest girls in the class. This friend seemed to think highly of me from the notes that were left, but the lack of gifts kept me wondering what was up with whoever had pulled my name. On the last morning of our assignment, I walked into my classroom and noticed a package on my desk. At last, my secret friend had grasped the idea that a gift was what I really needed. I quickly ripped open the gift paper, only to find a small doll inside. The pink wool-knit doll seemed not new but delicate. But the girls sitting near me giggled and gossiped about the “little girl” gift I had received. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1.

The reason why Shackleton is still applauded as a great man becomes obvious when you consider what he achieved in the face of disasters and hardships during his 1914-16 expedition. The practicality and humanity he showed in the face of severe situations was arguably praised.”（沙克尔顿的领导能力，对于他的人能否活著出来至关重要。当你想到沙克尔顿在1914-1916年的探险中，在灾难和艰辛面前所取得的成就，你就会明白为什么他仍然被称赞为伟大的人。他在严峻形势下表现出的实用性和人性，受到了赞扬。）可知，人们对沙克尔顿船长的敬意在于其面对灾难时他的领导能力和英勇精神，对于活著出来至关重要，故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The wreck of HMS Endurance, which has finally been located deep beneath the icy seas of Antarctica after being lost 107 years ago, was arguably the most valuable shipwreck ever sought. ”（107年前失踪的“HMS忍耐号”的残骸，终于沉入了南极洲冰冷的海洋深处，可以说是有史以来最有价值的沉船。）引出了文章讲述的话题：“HMS忍耐号”的残骸，是有史以来最有价值的沉船。接着在下文讲述了沉船的经过及船长沙克尔顿的英勇精神。所以本文属于新闻报道。故选B。 B In this age of cell phones, text messages and computer keyboards, one Scottish school has returned to basics. It’s teaching children the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen. There is no clicking of keyboards in most classrooms at the Mary Erskine and Stewart’s Melville Junior School, although there is a full range of facilities (设施) for computer lessons and technology isn’t being ignored. The school’s headmaster believes the old-fashioned pens have helped strengthen the academic performance and self-respect of his 1,200 pupils. “The pens improve the quality of work because they force the children to take care, and better work improves self-respect”, headmaster Bryan Lewis said. “Proper handwriting is as relevant today as it ever has been.” Students as young as 7 have been instructed to give up their ballpoint pens and begin to deal with the more artful predecessor. By the time they reach grade five, at age 9, they are expected to write mainly with fountain pens. Lewis said the school’s 7- and 8-year-olds use fountain pens for 80 percent to 90 percent of their work, returning to pencils for such subjects as math. “I don’t see fountain pens as old-fashioned or out of date. Modern fountain pens are beautiful to use. It’s not like in the old days of broken metal points and dirtying writing paper,” Lewis said. “We have a particular writing style and we have developed it very carefully and found a way that allows left- and right-handed people to write without dirtying paper.” Some people argue that handwriting is becoming less important because of the growing use of cell phone text messaging and typing on computers, but the school disagrees. “We talk of the paperless office and the paperless world, but this is not true,” Lewis said. “You still need to have proper handwriting skills.” 4. What can be inferred about the Scottish school? A. It does not think highly of modern technology. B. It values fountain pens more than anything else. C. It pays special attention to the use of fountain pens. D. It takes action which is considered stupid by many people. 5. What does the underlined word “predecessor” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The pencil. B. The keyboard. C. The ballpoint pen. D. The fountain pen. 6. Which of the following may be the view of the headmaster? A. Fountain pens have helped to build up students’ self-respect. B. Using fountain pens may slow down students’ speed of writing. C. Handwriting skills are more important than typing skills nowadays. D. Children should be required to use fountain pens when they are five. 7. What’s the main idea of this passage? A. Schools should stay away from tech. B. Old-fashioned fountain pens are coming back. C. Fountain pens strengthen academic performance. D. Handwriting should not be ignored in modern times. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一所苏格兰学校回归基础教育的做法，教授孩子们使用钢笔书写，而不是现代的电子设备。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In this age of cell phones, text messages and computer keyboards, one Scottish school has returned to basics. It’s teaching children the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen.(在这个充斥着手机、短信和电脑键盘的时代，苏格兰的一所学校回归了基础。教孩子们用钢笔写字这门被忽视的艺术)”可知，文章中的苏格兰学校很重视钢笔的使用。故选C。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“By the time they reach grade five, at age 9, they are expected to write mainly with fountain pens. Lewis said the school’s 7- and 8-year-olds use fountain pens for 80 percent to 90 percent of their work, returning to pencils for such subjects as math.(到了五年级，也就是9岁的时候，他们主要会用钢笔写字。刘易斯说，学校里七八岁的孩子们80%到90%的作业都是用钢笔完成的，数学等科目的作业又回到了铅笔)”可知，所谓的圆珠笔的“前辈”指的应该是钢笔。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““The pens improve the quality of work because they force the children to take care, and better work improves self-respect”, headmaster Bryan Lewis said.(校长Bryan Lewis说:“这些笔提高了作业质量，因为它们迫使孩子们留心，而更好的作业也能提高自尊。”)”可知，Bryan Lewis认为钢笔使孩子们留心从而提高了作业质量，而更好的作业也能提高自尊。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In this age of cell phones, text messages and computer keyboards, one Scottish school has returned to basics. It’s teaching children the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen. There is no clicking of keyboards in most classrooms at the Mary Erskine and Stewart’s Melville Junior School, although there is a full range of facilities (设施) for computer lessons and technology isn’t being ignored. The school’s headmaster believes the old-fashioned pens have helped strengthen the academic performance and self-respect of his 1,200 pupils.(在这个充斥着手机、短信和电脑键盘的时代，苏格兰的一所学校回归了基础。教孩子们用钢笔写字这门被忽视的艺术。在玛丽·厄斯金和斯图尔特的梅尔维尔小学，大多数教室里都没有敲击键盘的声音，尽管那里有各种各样的计算机课程设施，而且技术也没有被忽视。这所学校的校长认为，这种老式钢笔有助于提高1200名学生的学习成绩和自尊)”以及文章主要讲述了苏格兰一所学校重新要求学生使用老式钢笔，而不是现代电子设备。故事中的学校已经放弃了键盘和电脑，转而使用钢笔，他们认为这将提高学生的学习成绩和自尊。即这篇文章的主旨是老式钢笔又回来了。故选B。 C Cartoons suit the way we like information to be presented these days: vividly and in small amounts. We are used to cartoons and comic series that take a biting look at modern life or provide a bit of escapism. But recently we have seen an increase in the number of comic books: book-length comics with a single, continuous narrative. Historically, comic books were not popular outside France, Belgium, Japan, and the US. The exception is the worldwide popularity of a young reporter-detective from Belgium, Tintin. The creation of the Belgian cartoonist Herge, The Adventures of Tintin first appeared in a Belgian newspaper in 1929. Each story appeared as a cartoon series week by week, but soon after was republished in book form. One of the main attractions for readers was that they were taken to parts of the world they had never seen and probably never would: Russia, Congo, America. Herge himself only traveled outside Belgium later in life, but his passion was educating his readers about other cultures and places. Two things set Herge apart as a comic novelist. The first was his technical drawing skills: with just a few simple lines he could communicate a particular facial expression or movement. The second was the careful research he put into his stories. In The Crab with the Golden Claws, Tintin follows an opium-smuggling (鸦片走私) ring to North Africa; in King Ottakar’s Scepter, he makes an attempt at a military coup (政变) in a central European country. While telling these stories, Herge also made a fine balance between serious topics and humor. Tintin had more than his fair share of adventures, but perhaps the greatest is his journey to the Moon, told in Destination Moon and Explorers on the Moon. Written in 1953, sixteen years before the first Moon landing, the stories show a remarkable eye for technical detail and feeling for the nature of space travel. In the early 1950s, few could imagine what it was like to be looking down at our planet from outer space. And that is Herge’s true gift: to understand what a place was like without ever having been there. 8. What can be learned about comic books from the passage? A. They mostly involve detective stories. B. They present information in small amounts. C. They are taking a positive look at modern life. D. They were popular outside Belgium historically. 9. Which of the following was an attraction of The Adventures of Tintin for readers? A. The stories were the first comic novel published in book form. B. The stories used to be cartoon series that appeared week by week. C. The stories had a good balance between serious topics and humor. D. The stories enabled them to learn about places they had never been to. 10. Why are The Crab with the Golden Claws and King Ottakar’s Scepter taken for examples? A. To show Herge had a good sense of humor. B. To show Herge liked touching on serious topics. C. To illustrate Herge based stories on research results. D. To illustrate Herge was expert at technical drawing skills. 11. Which of the following can best describe Herge according to the passage? A. Creative. B. Devoted. C. Serious. D. Humorous. 【答案】8 B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了比利时漫画《丁丁历险记》作者Herge以其精湛的绘图技艺和详实的研究著称，带领读者探索世界各地及太空，展现非凡想象力与预见性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Cartoons suit the way we like information to be presented these days: vividly and in small amounts. (漫画适合我们现在喜欢的信息呈现方式：生动而少量。)”可知，漫画提供生动而少量的信息。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One of the main attractions for readers was that they were taken to parts of the world they had never seen and probably never would: Russia, Congo, America. (读者的主要吸引力之一是，他们被带到了世界上他们从未见过、也可能永远不会见过的地方：俄罗斯、刚果、美国。)”可知，《丁丁历险记》的故事让读者了解自己从未去过的地方，这是其吸引读者的地方。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The second was the careful research he put into his stories. In The Crab with the Golden Claws, Tintin follows an opium-smuggling (鸦片走私) ring to North Africa; in King Ottakar’s Scepter, he makes an attempt at a military coup (政变) in a central European country. (第二是他对自己的故事进行了细致的研究。在《金钳螃蟹贩毒集团》中，丁丁跟随一个鸦片走私团伙前往北非；在《奥托卡王的权杖》中，他试图在一个中欧国家发动军事政变。)”可知，作者以《金钳螃蟹贩毒集团》和《奥托卡王的权杖》为例，是为了说明Herge的故事是基于他的研究写的。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“And that is Herge’s true gift: to understand what a place was like without ever having been there. (这就是Herge真正的天赋：即使没有去过一个地方，也能了解那里是什么样子。)”可知，即使没有去过一个地方，埃尔热也能理解那里是什么样子，由此可推知，埃尔热是有创造力的。故选A。 D Solar panels — also known as “photovoltaic” panels — are used to turn sunlight into electricity. Most solar panels are placed on land in large collections called solar farms. But recently people have begun to explore putting floating solar panels on water. Because these panels float, some people call them “floatovoltaics”. The idea isn’t as unusual as it might seem. After all, any solar panel has to be waterproof, since it will be out in the rain. There are already several large floatovoltaic farms in Asia. On land, so panels are held up by special frames (框架). On the water, floatovoltaics are placed on a floating platform attached to the bottom of a lake or reservoir (水库). Floating solar panels cost about 25% more than those placed on land. The researchers behind the new study looked at 145,555 reservoirs worldwide. They used computer programs to figure out how much electricity could be produced yearly by covering 30% of these reservoirs with floating solar panels. The answer was surprisingly large — more than twice the amount of energy the United States generates in a year and 10 times as much energy as all the solar power currently being generated in the world. Floatovoltaics can also help save water by limiting evaporation (蒸发) from reservoirs. The scientists say that solar panels covering just 30% of the reservoirs’ surfaces could save as much water as 300 million people would use in a year. There are several other reasons that make floatovoltaics a good idea. Photovoltaic panels work better when they’re not extremely hot. The water helps cool the panels so that they create more energy. Floatovoltaics aren’t perfect. Covering too much of a reservoir with panels could affect the plants and animals in the water. The scientists say it will be important to study how floating panels will affect water in each reservoir. Focusing first on man-made reservoirs will avoid some of those problems. 12. What is the purpose of paragraph 2? A. To list solar panels’ unusual functions. B. To introduce the workability of floating solar panels. C. To show disadvantages of solar panels on land. D. To make a comparison between different solar panels. 13. How did researchers carry out the new study? A. By looking at reservoirs worldwide. B. By building floatovoltaic farms in the US. C. By making computer-aided estimates. D. By processing data given by specialists. 14. What do we know about floating solar panels? A. They may cause potential harm to water ecosystem. B. They will eventually replace photovoltaic panels. C. They function well in extreme hot weather. D. They are perfect except for the high cost. 15. What is the suitable title for the text? A. Floating Solar Panels — Our Final Choice B Floating Solar Panels — Taking Us Back to Water C. Floating Solar Panels — A New Way to Cool the Planet D. Floating Solar Panels — Making Energy, Saving Water 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了浮动太阳能电池板的优势——既能发电又能节约水。 12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The idea isn’t as unusual as it might seem. After all, any solar panel has to be waterproof, since it will be out in the rain. There are already several large floatovoltaic farms in Asia. On land, so panels are held up by special frames (框架). On the water, floatovoltaics are placed on a floating platform attached to the bottom of a lake or reservoir(水库). Floating solar panels cost about 25% more than those placed on land.(这个想法并不像看起来那么不寻常。毕竟，任何太阳能电池板都必须是防水的，因为它会在雨中使用。亚洲已经有几个大型的浮动光伏电站。在陆地上，太阳能板由特殊框架支撑。在水面上，浮动光伏被放置在附着在湖底或水库底部的浮动平台上。浮动太阳能电池板的成本比放置在陆地上的太阳能电池板高出25%左右。)”可知，第2段的目的是介绍浮动太阳能电池板的可操作性。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“They used computer programs to figure out how much electricity could be produced yearly by covering 30% of these reservoirs with floating solar panels.(他们使用计算机程序计算出，如果在30%的水库上安装浮动太阳能电池板，每年可以产生多少电力。)”可知，研究人员是通过计算机辅助估算来进行这项新研究的。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Covering too much of a reservoir with panels could affect the plants and animals in the water.(用面板覆盖太多的水库可能会影响水中的植物和动物。)”可知，浮动太阳能电池板可能对水生态系统造成潜在危害。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是倒数第三段“The answer was surprisingly large—more than twice the amount of energy the United States generates in a year and 10 times as much energy as all the solar power currently being generated in the world.(答案惊人地大——是美国一年发电量的两倍多，是目前世界上所有太阳能发电量的10倍。)”和倒数第二段“Floatovoltaics can also help save water by limiting evaporation (蒸发) from reservoirs.(浮动光伏还可以通过限制水库的蒸发来帮助节约用水。)”可知，本文主要介绍了浮动太阳能电池板的优势——既能发电又能节约水，因此最好的题目是D选项“浮动太阳能电池板——发电，节水”。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Self-doubt happens to us during normal days or whenever we start something new.

There were the geeks, the jocks (小丑) , and the popular cool kids. I wasn’t sure where I belonged. And I think that was a problem. Our teacher had assigned “secret friends” for the coming week. The purpose of this assignment was to do nice things for your friend without letting them know who was doing it. We could leave encouraging notes on their desk or mysteriously leave a card in their backpack or book. Our teacher wrote each kid’s name on a piece of paper and threw them into a bucket, then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of the classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days. Everyone was excited to get involved, including Rochelle. By the middle of the week, we had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. Instead of encouraging notes, we left stationary sets on our friend’s desk. Instead of giving compliments, we were giving bubble gum, lollipops and even money. It seemed that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends. Everyone except me, that is. My secret friend followed our teacher’s directions without a fault. I received handmade cards, notes with nice thoughts and countless smiley face pictures saying that I was one of the nicest girls in the class. This friend seemed to think highly of me from the notes that were left, but the lack of gifts kept me wondering what was up with whoever had pulled my name. On the last morning of our assignment, I walked into my classroom and noticed a package on my desk. At last, my secret friend had grasped the idea that a gift was what I really needed. I quickly ripped open the gift paper, only to find a small doll inside. The pink wool-knit doll seemed not new but delicate. But the girls sitting near me giggled and gossiped about the “little girl” gift I had received. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One Possible Version: Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. Embarrassed and ashamed, I secretly complained that the girl gave me so stupid a gift to arouse others’ derision. I even joined other girls in gossiping about my secret friend and the poor doll. When I continued with mean remarks, a girl sitting at the last row arose and came up, casting me an angry and disappointed look. With tears streaming down her face, she admitted, “I’m your secret friend and I’m sorry about the gift.” Then she ran out of the classroom. Frozen with shock, I couldn’t utter a single word. It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. She had saved every penny in her pocket money in order to give me a cool gift. With the limited money, she visited a lot of stores and finally selected the lovely doll from a second-hand store. Actually, she gave me a most valuable gift with her sincere heart. However, I didn’t treasure and hurt her badly in such a cruel way. So ashamed was I that it took me a few days to pluck up my courage to face up to Rochelle and apologize. Much to my delight, she forgave me and later we became best friends. Most importantly, we found where we belonged. 【解析】 【分析】本文以找“秘密朋友”活动为线索展开，讲述了老师为了让同学们找到好朋友，举行了找“秘密朋友”的活动。大家都为自己的秘密朋友留下最好的礼物，例如泡泡糖、棒棒糖甚至是钱。而作者收到的确实是手工制作的卡片、便条和笑脸照片，还有一个看起来很不起眼的洋娃娃。作者感到很失望，甚至和其他同学一起取笑这个洋娃娃。这时候，罗谢尔站出来说礼物是她送的，她来自一个贫困家庭，为了送给作者一个礼物，她攒了平时的零花钱。作者顿时感到很羞愧而向罗谢尔道歉，最终罗谢尔原谅了作者，她们成为了最好的朋友。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听到这些，我觉得我的脸变红了。”可知，第一段可描写作者为收到这样的礼物而感到尴尬，因此，和周围同学一起嘲笑这个“洋娃娃”。这时候，送礼物的罗谢尔难过的跑出去，作者才知道，自己的秘密朋友是她。 ②由第二段首句内容“原来我的秘密朋友是罗谢尔，来自一个贫穷的家庭。”可知，第二段可描写罗谢尔虽然很贫困，但是她依然攒钱给自己的秘密朋友买最好的礼物。 2.续写线索：嘲笑礼物——发现秘密朋友罗谢尔——羞愧——道歉——成为好朋友 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.开始：begin/start ②.分开：separate into/split into ③.参与：get involved /join in/ attend 情绪类 ①.兴奋的，积极的：excited / active ②.羞愧：ashamed / compunctious 【点睛】[高分句型1].
