It’s a circle of stones of different heights. The stones used to be about 200 kilometers away. Now, people still wonder how these people moved the huge stones without machines’ help. No visit to Paris is complete without a trip to Louvre Museum, one of the largest and most famous art museums in the world. About 35,000 works of art from different centuries are on show. Heavy snow cold wind and thin oxygen，Mount Qomolangma seems to say “no” to any climber who dreams about making it to the top of the world. Tenzing and Edmund were the earliest to arrive at the top, but they were up there for just 15 minutes before coming down. In the north of England lies Lake District National Park, which is very beautiful, with hills, lakes, and forest. Most tourists enjoy walking around the lakes and climbing mountains. Lake District National Park is also a perfect place to paint the beautiful countryside. 31. People are still wondering how ancient people ______. A. wrote the history of machines B. made different stones C. walked 200 kilometers D. managed to move the stones 32. The followings make it difficult to reach the top of Qomolangma EXCEPT ______. A. heavy snow B. large lakes C. cold wind D. thin oxygen 33. ______ is a great choice to enjoy walking around the lakes. A Stonehenge B. Lake District National Park C. Mount Qomolangma D. Louvre Museum 34. We can learn from the passage that ______. A. Stonehenge has a history of five hundred years B. the works of art in Louvre Museum are from the same century C. Tenzing and Edmund were the first to reach the top of Qomolangma D. Lake District National Park is in the south of England 35. The passage is probably taken from ______. A. a travel guide B. a diary C. a news report D. a story book B A recent research study suggests that learning music doesn’t make you smarter. For a while, there was an idea found on the Internet and in various magazines that suggested that babies could become smarter if they listened to Mozart, or to other classical music. Inspired, some parents bought classical CDs for their babies in the hope that this would boost their intelligence. But this so-called “Mozart Effect” has been challenged repeatedly. But is taking music lessons surely different from just listening to music? Wouldn’t taking music lessons make kids smarter? That’s exactly the question that many researchers over the years have tried to answer. Some of their studies concluded that it does, and some found that it doesn’t. For example, one study showed that music education did not improve reading skills, while another one found a small effect of music on young children’s ability to learn words. The researchers of the new study, Giovanni Sala (Fujita Health University) and Fernand Gober (London School of Economics), looked at the data behind 54 carefully selected studies, and after carefully comparing the data from different papers, they concluded that children who took music lessons did not score higher on tests that measure their intelligence or academic ability than kids that didn’t learn music. If music doesn’t make you smarter, how does that explain other research that shows that music lessons help students’ school performance? It seems like there is something about music lessons that makes students able to perform better in their other classes. That doesn’t have to be intelligence, and it’s likely not. Music lessons could have helped in different ways: They could have led to a change in homework habits, they could have increased confidence, or they could have improved social skills. And finally, they also mention that music education could still be beneficial to students’ performance in non-music subject if the music is combined with these classes. So feel free to keep making music, and keep encouraging children to learn music. 36. Which of the following words is closest to the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2? A. Reduce. B. Improve. C. Understand. D. Influence. 37. What can we learn about the “Mozart Effect”? A. It is most likely to be ineffective. B. It was first presented by Mozart. C. It helps parents take good care of their children. D. It will draw more and more researchers’ attention. 38. What does the example in Paragraph 3 show? A. Listening to music benefits kids a lot. B. Whether music education suits all kids remains unknown. C. Listening to music fail to help kids in language learning. D. Whether taking music lessons makes kids smarter is controversial (有争议的). 39. How did the researchers carry out the new study? A. They did 54 small studies in all. B. They observed children in music classes. C. They examined plenty of previous research. D. They did a long-term survey of musical students. 40. What conclusion is made in the last paragraph? A. Music lessons should be encouraged for children. B. Intelligence determines one’s school performance. C. A student’s intelligence can be increased with effort. D. Students should avoid listening to music while studying. C In the mornings, as I walked from the train station to the office, I planned my day by making a to-do list in my head: the scientific articles I would read, the data sets I would analyze, and most urgent of all — the insights into human nature that it was my job to discover. Each evening, I went back to the station, again going through my mental checklist but this time sizing up my performance against the expectations I’d set for myself that morning. Time and again, when comparing my to-do list with my got-done list, I felt frustrated because I had fallen short. But one day, something very strange happened. During my trip home, without any conscious intention, my thoughts began to change. Instead of feeling bad about my weaknesses, I said aloud very softly: I’m a nice person. I’m a nice person. I’m a nice person. By the time I boarded my train, I was done with my little chant until the next day when I walked home. And again, after counting my failures, I found myself saying quietly: I’m a nice person. It turns out that there’s a technical term for this practice: values affirmation (肯定). And what it emphasizes is recognizing and strengthening the personal values. When you affirm a core personal value, you raise your sense of self-worth. You broaden your outlook: Instead of focusing on your shortfalls, you switch to a wide-angle view that includes your resources and opportunities. And the people who do this are happier, healthier, and more hopeful. Overtime, I made progress in my research and learned a lot about what makes most successful people special, including this: Nobody has passion and determination unless what they do lines up with their values. Try values affirmation for yourself and teach the practice to your students. Take a moment and think of a value you hold, whether it’s kindness, creativity, or gratitude. Whatever it is, name it. And then say to yourself: Come what may, I know who I am. Your values are your foundation and your compass, too. Trust them, and they will lead you home. 41. How did the author feel when comparing his to-do list with his got-done list at the beginning? A. Satisfied. B. Pleased. C. Disappointed. D. Unconcerned. 42. What does the underlined words “sizing up” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Changing. B. Forming. C. Denying. D. Judging. 43. The author affirmed his values by . A. strengthening a core personal value to himself B talking aloud to himself on his way home C. counting his failures D making his to-do list 44. What does values affirmation mean to people? A. It changes people’s focus to their shortcomings. B. It improves their sense of self-worth. C. It limits their resources and opportunities. D. It makes them more critical of themselves. 45. What’s the author’s suggestion to readers? A. To constantly compare oneself to others. B. To improve one’s kindness and gratitude. C. To highlight values affirmation and spread the practice. D. To become successful with passion. 非选择题 (满分25分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分25分) 第一节：阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 The Christmas holidays were fast approaching, and we had ordered many gifts online, So when the doorbell rang, I was sure some of the packages had arrived. I ran to the door, but no one was there. T sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful calico kitten (杂色猫) sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was no way that she could have rung the doorbell by herself. We figured that someone had found the kitten somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed we would welcome an additional family member and take care of her. My husband called her our little angel, so we named her Angelica. She turned out to be the perfect companion. Always by my side, she was more like a puppy than a kitten. She had plenty of energy that made every day special. As the days went by, Angelica filled our home with joy and she indeed was a blessing to me. Angelica was brave, too. One snowy evening, I noticed Angelica behaving strangely. She constantly scratched (用爪刨) at our back door. With a sense of curiosity, I followed her outside. To my surprise, I found an old woman, my neighbor, Mrs. Jensen, fallen in the snow, unable to get up. Thanks to Angelica’s cleverness, we got to Mrs. Jensen just in time. The warmth of Angelica nestled (偎依着) into her, keeping her safe until help arrived. That night, Angelica was not just my brave calico kitten, but an angel. The bond between us deepened greatly as I thanked my little angel, who had saved not just a neighbor, but filled our lives with love, laughter, and warmth. 46.

It’s a circle of stones of different heights. The stones used to be about 200 kilometers away. Now, people still wonder how these people moved the huge stones without machines’ help. No visit to Paris is complete without a trip to Louvre Museum, one of the largest and most famous art museums in the world. About 35,000 works of art from different centuries are on show. Heavy snow, cold wind and thin oxygen，Mount Qomolangma seems to say “no” to any climber who dreams about making it to the top of the world. Tenzing and Edmund were the earliest to arrive at the top, but they were up there for just 15 minutes before coming down. In the north of England lies Lake District National Park, which is very beautiful, with hills, lakes, and forest. Most tourists enjoy walking around the lakes and climbing mountains. Lake District National Park is also a perfect place to paint the beautiful countryside. 31. People are still wondering how ancient people ______. A. wrote the history of machines B. made different stones C walked 200 kilometers D. managed to move the stones 32. The followings make it difficult to reach the top of Qomolangma EXCEPT ______.

For a while, there was an idea found on the Internet and in various magazines that suggested that babies could become smarter if they listened to Mozart, or to other classical music. Inspired, some parents bought classical CDs for their babies in the hope that this would boost their intelligence. But this so-called “Mozart Effect” has been challenged repeatedly. But is taking music lessons surely different from just listening to music? Wouldn’t taking music lessons make kids smarter? That’s exactly the question that many researchers over the years have tried to answer. Some of their studies concluded that it does, and some found that it doesn’t. For example, one study showed that music education did not improve reading skills, while another one found a small effect of music on young children’s ability to learn words. The researchers of the new study, Giovanni Sala (Fujita Health University) and Fernand Gober (London School of Economics), looked at the data behind 54 carefully selected studies, and after carefully comparing the data from different papers, they concluded that children who took music lessons did not score higher on tests that measure their intelligence or academic ability than kids that didn’t learn music. If music doesn’t make you smarter, how does that explain other research that shows that music lessons help students’ school performance? It seems like there is something about music lessons that makes students able to perform better in their other classes. That doesn’t have to be intelligence, and it’s likely not. Music lessons could have helped in different ways: They could have led to a change in homework habits, they could have increased confidence, or they could have improved social skills. And finally, they also mention that music education could still be beneficial to students’ performance in non-music subject if the music is combined with these classes. So feel free to keep making music, and keep encouraging children to learn music. 36. Which of the following words is closest to the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2? A. Reduce. B. Improve. C. Understand. D. Influence. 37. What can we learn about the “Mozart Effect”? A. It is most likely to be ineffective. B. It was first presented by Mozart. C. It helps parents take good care of their children. D. It will draw more and more researchers’ attention. 38. What does the example in Paragraph 3 show? A. Listening to music benefits kids a lot. B. Whether music education suits all kids remains unknown. C. Listening to music fail to help kids in language learning. D. Whether taking music lessons makes kids smarter is controversial (有争议的). 39. How did the researchers carry out the new study? A. They did 54 small studies in all. B. They observed children in music classes. C. They examined plenty of previous research. D. They did a long-term survey of musical students. 40. What conclusion is made in the last paragraph? A. Music lessons should be encouraged for children. B. Intelligence determines one’s school performance. C. A student’s intelligence can be increased with effort. D. Students should avoid listening to music while studying. 【答案】36. B 37. A 38. D 39. C 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究，该研究表明学习音乐并不会提高孩子的智商，但是可以帮助孩子在其它方面有更好的表现。 【36题详解】 词句猜测题。由文章第二段中“For a while, there was an idea found on the Internet and in various magazines that suggested that babies could become smarter if they listened to Mozart, or to other classical music. Inspired, some parents bought classical CDs for their babies (有一段时间，在互联网和各种杂志上发现了一种观点，认为如果婴儿听莫扎特或其他古典音乐，他们会变得更聪明。受此启发，一些父母给他们的孩子买了古典音乐CD，)”可知，一些父母给他们的孩子买了古典音乐CD，是希望这能提高他们的智力，划线词的意思为“提高”。A. Reduce减少；B. Improve提高；C. Understand理解；D. Influence影响。故选B。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But this so-called ‘Mozart Effect’ has been challenged repeatedly. (但这种所谓的‘莫扎特效应’却一再受到挑战。)”及第四段中的“they concluded that children who took music lessons did not score higher on tests that measure their intelligence or academic ability than kids that didn’t learn music.(他们得出的结论是，上音乐课的孩子在衡量智力或学习能力的测试中的得分并不比不学音乐的孩子高。)”可知，莫扎特效应极有可能是无效的。故选A项。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But is taking music lessons surely different from just listening to music? Wouldn’t taking music lessons make kids smarter? That’s exactly the question that many researchers over the years have tried to answer. Some of their studies concluded that it does, and some found that it doesn’t. (但是，上音乐课和听音乐肯定不同吗？上音乐课难道不会让孩子们变得更聪明吗？这正是多年来许多研究人员试图回答的问题。他们的一些研究得出的结论是确实如此，而一些研究发现事实并非如此。)”可知，该段所列举的例子是为了说明学习音乐会让一个孩子变得更聪明的论点具有争议性。故选D项。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The researchers of the new study, Giovanni Sala (Fujita Health University) and Fernand Gobet (London School of Economics), looked at the data behind 54 carefully selected studies (这项新研究的研究人员Giovanni Sala（藤田健康大学）和Fernand Gobet（伦敦经济学院）查看了54项精心挑选的研究背后的数据 )”可知，Sala和Gobet是在参考以前的研究数据后总结出了新的研究成果。故选C项。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Music lessons could have helped in different ways: They could have led to a change in homework habits, they could have increased confidence, or they could have improved social skills. And finally, they also mention that music education could still be very beneficial to students’ performance in non-music subjects if the music is combined with these classes. So feel free to keep making music, and keep encouraging children to learn music. (音乐课本可以在不同方面起到帮助作用：它们可以改变家庭作业习惯，增强信心，或者提高社交技能。最后，他们还提到，如果音乐与这些课程相结合，音乐教育仍然对学生在非音乐科目上的表现非常有益。所以，请继续创作音乐，并鼓励孩子们学习音乐。)”可知，新研究表明，虽然学习音乐并不会让一个孩子更聪明，但是可以提升孩子的多种能力，所以还是应该鼓励孩子学音乐。故选A项。 C In the mornings, as I walked from the train station to the office, I planned my day by making a to-do list in my head: the scientific articles I would read, the data sets I would analyze, and most urgent of all — the insights into human nature that it was my job to discover. Each evening, I went back to the station, again going through my mental checklist but this time sizing up my performance against the expectations I’d set for myself that morning. Time and again, when comparing my to-do list with my got-done list, I felt frustrated because I had fallen short. But one day, something very strange happened. During my trip home, without any conscious intention, my thoughts began to change. Instead of feeling bad about my weaknesses, I said aloud very softly: I’m a nice person. I’m a nice person. I’m a nice person. By the time I boarded my train, I was done with my little chant until the next day when I walked home. And again, after counting my failures, I found myself saying quietly: I’m a nice person. It turns out that there’s a technical term for this practice: values affirmation (肯定). And what it emphasizes is recognizing and strengthening the personal values. When you affirm a core personal value, you raise your sense of self-worth. You broaden your outlook: Instead of focusing on your shortfalls, you switch to a wide-angle view that includes your resources and opportunities. And the people who do this are happier, healthier, and more hopeful. Overtime, I made progress in my research and learned a lot about what makes most successful people special, including this: Nobody has passion and determination unless what they do lines up with their values. Try values affirmation for yourself and teach the practice to your students. Take a moment and think of a value you hold, whether it’s kindness, creativity, or gratitude. Whatever it is, name it. And then say to yourself: Come what may, I know who I am. Your values are your foundation and your compass, too. Trust them, and they will lead you home. 41. How did the author feel when comparing his to-do list with his got-done list at the beginning? A. Satisfied. B. Pleased. C. Disappointed. D. Unconcerned. 42. What does the underlined words “sizing up” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Changing. B. Forming. C. Denying. D. Judging. 43. The author affirmed his values by . A. strengthening a core personal value to himself B. talking aloud to himself on his way home C. counting his failures D. making his to-do list 44. What does values affirmation mean to people? A. It changes people’s focus to their shortcomings. B. It improves their sense of self-worth. C. It limits their resources and opportunities. D. It makes them more critical of themselves. 45. What’s the author’s suggestion to readers? A. To constantly compare oneself to others. B. To improve one’s kindness and gratitude. C. To highlight values affirmation and spread the practice. D. To become successful with passion. 【答案】41. C 42. D 43. A 44. B 45. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文中作者通过自身经历领悟到人要进行自我肯定，来强调认识和加强你最珍视的个人价值观。因为当你肯定一个核心的个人价值时，你会提高你的自我价值感。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Time and again, when comparing my to-do list with my got-done list, I felt frustrated because I had fallen short.(一次又一次，当我把我的待办事项清单和我的已完成事项清单进行比较时，我感到很沮丧，因为我做得不够)”可知，当作者将他的待办事项清单与他一开始的已完成事项清单进行比较时，他感觉失望。故选C。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“I went back to the station, again going through my mental checklist but this time(我回到车站，再次在脑海中检查清单，但这一次)”中but表示转折，结合后文“performance against the expectations I’d set for myself that morning(表现违背了我那天早上为自己设定的期望)”可知，作者回到车站，再次在脑海中检查自己的清单，但这次是根据早上为自己设定的期望来评判自己的表现。故划线短语sizing up意思是“评判”，与judge意思一致。故选D。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It turns out that there’s a technical term for this practice: values affirmation (肯定). And what it emphasizes is recognizing and strengthening the personal values (事实证明，这种做法有一个专业术语：价值肯定。它强调的是认识和加强你的个人价值观)”以及第四段中“When you affirm a core personal value, you raise your sense of self-worth.(当你肯定一个核心的个人价值时，你会提高你的自我价值感)”可知，作者通过强化个人核心价值观来肯定自己的价值观。故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When you affirm a core personal value, you raise your sense of self-worth.(当你肯定一个核心的个人价值时，你会提高你的自我价值感)”可知，价值观肯定对人们意味着提高他们的自我价值感。故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Try values affirmation for yourself and teach the practice to your students. Take a moment and think of a value you hold, whether it’s kindness, creativity, or gratitude. Whatever it is, name it. And then say to yourself: Come what may, I know who I am. Your values are your foundation and your compass, too. Trust them, and they will lead you home.(自己尝试价值观肯定，并将实践教给你的学生。花点时间想想你的价值观，无论是善良、创造力还是感恩。不管是什么，说出来。然后对自己说：不管发生什么，我知道我是谁。你的价值观是你的基础，也是你的指南针。相信他们，他们会带你回家)”可知，作者对读者的建议是突出价值观肯定，传播实践。故选C。 非选择题 (满分25分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分25分) 第一节：阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 The Christmas holidays were fast approaching, and we had ordered many gifts online, So when the doorbell rang, I was sure some of the packages had arrived.

As the days went by, Angelica filled our home with joy and she indeed was a blessing to me. Angelica was brave, too. One snowy evening, I noticed Angelica behaving strangely. She constantly scratched (用爪刨) at our back door. With a sense of curiosity, I followed her outside. To my surprise, I found an old woman, my neighbor, Mrs. Jensen, fallen in the snow, unable to get up. Thanks to Angelica’s cleverness, we got to Mrs. Jensen just in time. The warmth of Angelica nestled (偎依着) into her, keeping her safe until help arrived. That night, Angelica was not just my brave calico kitten, but an angel.

She turned out to be the perfect companion. Always by my side, she was more like a puppy than a kitten. She had plenty of energy that made every day special.(我丈夫叫她我们的小天使，所以我们给她取名安吉莉卡。她是个完美的伴侣。她总是在我身边，更像一只小狗而不是小猫。她精力充沛，每天都很特别。)”和最后一句中的“Angelica filled our home with joy and(安吉莉卡让我们家充满了欢乐并且)”可知，此处是指安吉莉卡给作者带来了好运，所以blessing意为“好运”。故答案为：Good fortune. 【48题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段最后四句“One snowy evening, I noticed Angelica behaving strangely.
