A future series is set to take place during World War Ⅱ in the 1940s. The show tells the life story of Bert Middleton, a man who was born into a working­class family and raised on a farm in the small village of Derbyshire. The first season was not very popular. People said that although the show was well acted, the subject matter and countryside were too depressing.(18) This was due in part to the extreme winter weather experienced in Peak District National Park in England, where the show was filmed. While the very first show of Season One was watched by 8.17 million people, the very last show of Season One was only watched by 5.48 million.(19) The second season takes place in the spring, which offered viewers a sunnier and happier attitude, although the final show only had 4.27 million viewers. The second season was mainly filmed in Lyme Park(20), England, which includes a large house surrounded by gardens. 1 2 3 4 第二部分：阅读(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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A New Zealand's amazing scenic beauty plays host to some amazing music, food, and cultural festivals throughout the year.

You think your friends and family may not read your articles. But as I began to talk more openly about Chinese traditions and food, I learned that they were interested, curious and really hungered for it. Their interest and curiosity grew and the culmination of their interest and curiosity was this past Spring Festival. They would like to spend the Spring Festival with me. It was an inconvenient Monday. I'd never had the Spring Festival when anyone but my father cooked. I took the day off work in a madness of last­minute preparation. I drove 45 minutes out of town to a Cantonese BBQ shop where I bought a whole roast duck (烤鸭) and watched, fascinated, as it was changed into bite sizes. I shopped at a faraway international market like a madwoman, looking for Chinese vegetables and other food that would be new for my guests. I called my dad, asking for six­second pointers on how to make dishes I'd never made. I texted him pictures of the sea fish I picked out, and the red clothing they threw on for luck. In just a few hours, I cooked a dinner of 15 dishes for six friends who cared enough about me and my culture to come over on a cold winter Monday night to celebrate my tradition with me. We drank, ate and toasted the beautiful night. And that night, I felt what it was to be loved for my culture as well as our food.

D 【文本大意】除夕，作者在国外为朋友们准备了中国菜，让他们感受中国传统节日的氛围。作者也因此感受到了来自其他文化的人对中国的文化和食物的喜爱。 24．A　词义猜测题。根据第一段第三句“But as I began to talk more openly about Chinese traditions and food, I learned that they were interested, curious and really hungered for it.(但是当我开始更开放地谈论中国传统和食物时，我了解到他们对此感兴趣，好奇并且真的渴望)”可知，她发现朋友很感兴趣，且这种兴趣在增长，并在春节时达到了顶峰，由此可猜测画线词culmination意为“顶峰”。故选A。 25．B　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“I drove 45 minutes out of town to a Cantonese BBQ shop where I bought a whole roast duck (烤鸭) and watched, fascinated, as it was changed into bite sizes.(我开了45分钟的车来到镇外的一家广东烧烤店，在那里我买了一整只烤鸭，出神地看着它被变成小块。)”可知，作者在一家广东烧烤店买了一只烤鸭。故选B。 26．C　主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“I took the day off work in a madness of last­minute preparation.”可知，作者请了一天假，疯狂地做最后的准备，即这一天作者都在忙着为晚餐做准备，从下文内容，尤其 是几个表示动作的词语“took a day off, drove, bought, picked out”等可知，本段主要描述作者准备晚餐的过程。故选C。 27．D　推理判断题。根据本文最后两句“We drank, ate and toasted the beautiful night.

Introduced to the United States in 1966 as a ceremony to welcome the first harvest to the home, the festival, which takes place from December 26 to January 1, is a celebration of life, unity, family, and culture. Featuring feasts, music and dance, and devotion and recommitment to different principles, the festival was created in the middle of the Black Freedom Movement, at a time when it was felt that cultural grounding was needed. Dr Maulana Karenga, professor and chairman of Black Studies at California State University in Long Beach, is responsible for bringing the festival to life. After the Watts violence in L．A., Dr Karenga searched for ways to strengthen the African­American community. He paired the practices with traditions of several different harvest celebrations on the African continent, and although it is celebrated around the Christmas period, it perhaps has more similarities to Thanksgiving or the Yam Festival in Ghana and Nigeria. There are five common sets of values that are central to the week­long activities: ingathering, reverence, commemoration, recommitment, and celebration. There are seven principles of Kwanzaa, meaning first fruits in Kiswahili, a language spoken in Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania. The first fruit celebrations appear in ancient and modern times in classical African civilizations. These seven principles are known as Umoja, meaning unity; kujichagulia, self­determination; ujima, collective work and responsibility; ujamaa, cooperative economics; nia, purpose; kuumba, creativity; and Imani, faith. There are seven candles used during the festival, and like the Jewish Hanukkah, these candles are used to represent the principles. On December 31, participants celebrate with a plentiful meal, often featuring good meals from various African countries. The number of Americans who celebrate Kwanzaa has changed greatly over the years, and with as many as six million getting involved in the 1980s, Kwanzaa became a mainstream holiday. Now, however, numbers have paled, but it still remains an important cultural touchstone(试金石) for many African­American communities. (　　)28．What activity can be included during the celebration of Kwanzaa? A．Creating a piece of music. B．Having a plentiful meal. C．Giving and receiving gifts. D．Enjoying an art exhibition. B (　　)29．How did Dr Karenga bring Kwanzaa to life? A．He started the Watts violence in Los Angeles. B．He created five common sets of values. C．He found ways to practice African traditions. D．He strengthened the unity of neighbors. D (　　)30．What can we infer about the celebration of Kwanzaa? A．Kwanzaa is a festival across the world. B．Africans are considered important in the U．S. C．Kwanzaa is an important cultural symbol. D．Kwanzaa is less popular among young Africans. C (　　)31．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．A Festival: The Culture Cross the World B．African Americans: An Important Part of Americans C．Principles: The Focus of a Festival D．Kwanzaa: The African Celebration of Unity and Culture D 【文本大意】本文主要介绍了非裔美国人的匡扎节。 28．B　细节理解题。根据第二段中“Featuring feasts, music and dance, and devotion and recommitment to different principles, the festival was created in the middle of the Black Freedom Movement, at a time when it was felt that cultural grounding was needed.(这个节日的特色是盛宴、音乐和舞蹈，以及对不同原则的奉献和重新承诺，它诞生于黑人自由运动中期，当时人们认为需要文化基础。)”可知，匡扎节的庆祝活动包括盛宴、音乐和舞蹈。故选B。 29．D　推理判断题。根据第三段中“Dr Maulana Karenga, professor and chairman of Black Studies at California State University in Long Beach, is responsible for bringing the festival to life. After the Watts violence in L．A., Dr Karenga searched for ways to strengthen the African­American community.(加州州立大学长滩分校黑人研究教授兼主席Maulana Karenga博士负责让这个节日变得活跃起来。洛杉矶瓦茨暴力事件发生后，Karenga博士寻找加强非裔美国人社区的方法。)”可知，Karenga博士加强了邻居们的团结让匡扎节活跃起来。故选D。 30．C　推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，在为期一周的活动中，有五套共同的价值观：聚集、尊敬、纪念、重新承诺和庆祝。匡扎节有七个原则，在肯尼亚、乌干达和坦桑尼亚使用的斯瓦希里语中，匡扎节意味着首批收获的果实。最早的水果庆典出现在古代和现代的古典非洲文明中。匡扎节有五套共同的价值观，有七个原则，所以我们能从匡扎节的庆祝活动中推断出匡扎节是一个重要的文化象征。故选C。 31．D　主旨大意题。本文主要介绍匡扎节，而匡扎节是庆祝生命、团结、家庭和文化的节日。所以最好的标题是D项“Kwanzaa: The African Celebration of Unity and Culture(匡扎节：非洲团结和文化的庆典)”。故选D。 D With the growing trend of listening to stories on meditation(冥想) apps, travel tales—sometimes featuring surrounding sounds of places such as rainforests in Borneo—are helping people get restful sleep. Imagine a voice softly telling as listeners close their eyes and snuggle down in their beds. Are you paying attention? Actually, it doesn't matter. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC), some 70 million Americans struggle with chronic(慢性的) sleep problems. To help with this, many adults are bringing back bedtime stories through meditation apps. Nearly a third of the Calm's 300 bedtime stories, which have been listened to more than 450 million times, are about travel. Some 45% of the bedtime stories on the app Breethe are travel­related. Earlier this year, half of the top 10 bedtime stories were travel­themed. Travel bedtime stories are typically an audio retelling of a trip and rely heavily on descriptions, with occasional surrounding noises like ocean waves, train tracks, or soft music. Train stories are particularly popular at bedtime. “You need movement in a bedtime story—if things are static(静止的), it's too dull and the listener will get restless，” says Martha Bayless, a professor at the University of Oregon's Folklore and Public Culture Program. “But the movement has to be non­threatening and soothing. The train is the perfect vehicle for sleep, engaging the senses in a gentle way.” “One possible reason why travel bedtime stories calm our brains is ‘mirror neurons(镜像神经元)’，” says Rachel Salas, a neurologist at Johns Hopkins Center for Sleep and Wellness. “These brain cells might combine our own experiences with someone else's. For example, a tale of train travel could bring a sense of nostalgia(怀旧) for our own past journeys. The comforting sense of something familiar can help with relaxation and sleep. Additionally, the sound of a train chugging along the tracks serves as a type of white noise that lulls people to sleep，” Salas adds. “In most travel bedtime stories, nothing much happens，” says Bayless. “The bedtime stories are about the quiet period between adventures, which is what sleep is also about.” (　　)32．In which aspect do people benefit from travel tales? A．Promoting sleep. B．Inspiring imagination. C．Improving concentration. D．Gaining travel information. A (　　)33．What do the numbers in Paragraph 2 mainly indicate(表明)? A．Most adults suffer a lot from a lack of sleep. B．Adequate quality sleep is essential to human health. C．Meditation apps help people reduce stress effectively. D．Travel­related bedtime stories are more appealing to listeners. D (　　)34．What do Rachel Salas's words serve as in Paragraph 4? A．Evidence of the significance of mirror neurons. B．An explanation as to why travel tales help with sleep. C．A description of adventurous travel experiences. D．An analysis of how sleep affects people's memory. (　　)35．In which section of a newspaper may this article appear? A．Travel. B．Art. C．Entertainment. D．Science. B D 【文本大意】本文主要介绍了有关旅行的故事可以帮助人们获得宁静的睡眠并从科学角度解释了它的原因。 32．A　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“With the growing trend of listening to stories on meditation(冥想) apps, travel tales—sometimes featuring surrounding sounds of places such as rainforests in Borneo—are helping people get restful sleep.(随着在冥想应用程序上听故事的趋势不断增长，有时以婆罗洲雨林等地周围的声音为特色的旅行故事正在帮助人们获得宁静的睡眠。)”可知，旅行故事可以帮助人们获得宁静的睡眠。故选A。 33．D　推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，Calm的300个睡前故事中，有近三分之一是关于旅行的，这些故事已被收听超过4.5亿次。Breethe应用程序上约45%的睡前故事与旅行有关。今年早些时候，前十大睡前故事中有一半是以旅行为主题的。由此可知，本段中的数字表明与旅行有关的睡前故事对听众很有吸引力。故选D。 34．B　推理判断题。根据第四段中Rachel Salas说的话中关键信息“One possible reason why travel bedtime stories calm our brains is ‘mirror neurons(镜像神经元)’”可知，Rachel Salas说睡前旅行故事让我们的大脑 平静下来的一个可能原因是“镜像神经元”；接下来她具体介绍了镜像神经元如何让睡前故事对人类有催眠作用。因此本段中Rachel Salas所说的话的作用是解释与旅行有关的故事帮助人们睡眠的原因。故选B。 35．D　推理判断题。这篇文章主要介绍了与旅行有关的故事可以帮助人们获得宁静的睡眠并从科学角度解释了它的原因。因此它属于与科学相关的文章，应该是出自报纸的科学部分。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。 The Fallas Festival in Spain It is sometimes strange how world­famous festivals are started. This is especially true for the Fallas Festival. 36．______． Centuries ago, the city's carpenters would empty their houses of all the old wood they had saved over the winter and burn it all in the local C square.

This is especially true for the Fallas Festival.”提到像法雅节这种世界著名的节日是如何开始的，有时候让人觉得很奇怪，由此可知，空处应该承接上文，具体介绍法雅节，C项“It takes place every March in Valencia, Spain(它每年三月在西班牙巴伦西亚举行)”符合语境，介绍了法雅节每年的举行时间和地点。故选C。 37．F　 上文“Sometimes they would create funny images of famous people.”提到木匠有时候会创造出名人滑稽的形象，空处应该承接上文，指出这吸引人们来观看，F项“Everyone would come to take a look(每个人都会来看看)”符合语境。故选F。 38．E　 上文“The Fallas Festival is now one of the most popular festivals in Spain.”指出法雅节是西班牙最受欢迎的节日之一，空处应该承接上文，继续描述法雅节很受欢迎，E项“It also attracts people from all over the world to watch and take part(它也吸引了来自世界各地的人们来观看和参与)”符合语境。故选E。 39．D　空前两句指出会选出最好的雕塑，而且这些雕塑在节日结束时不会被烧毁，由此可知，空处应该承接上文，指出如何处理这些雕塑，D项“They are instead saved and placed in the local museum(相反，它们被保存下来，放在当地的博物馆里)”符合语境，该选项中出现了空后定语从句的先行词 museum，这些有着没被烧毁的雕塑的博物馆全年开放。故选D。 40．G　空处位于句首，为段落主题句。下文主要介绍了在节日的最后一晚，所有的雕塑都被收集起来放在巴伦西亚广场的篝火上。火被点燃 了，一年的辛苦工作在火焰中结束了。每个观看的人都向冬天说再见，欢迎春天的到来，因此本段主要讲述了法雅节的意义——能将人们聚集在一起，因此G项“The Fallas Festival always brings communities together(法雅节总是把人们聚集在一起)”符合语境。故选G。 1 2 3 4 第三部分：语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The year I turned fifty, I determined to do something new every single day for a year.

We do hope such a meaningful class will be carried out again in the future. 第二节(满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Pumpkin(南瓜) carving at Halloween is a family tradition. We visit a local farm every October. In the pumpkin field, I compete with my three brothers and sister to seek out the biggest pumpkin. My dad has a rule that we have to carry our pumpkins back home, and as the eldest child I have an advantage—I carried an 85­pounder back last year. This year, it was hard to tell whether my prize or the one chose by my 14­year­old brother, Jason, was the winner. Unfortunately we forgot to weigh them before taking out their insides, but I was determined to prove my point. All of us were hard at work at the kitchen table, with my mom filming the annual event. I'm unsure now why I thought forcing my head inside the pumpkin would settle the matter, but it seemed to make perfect sense at the time. With the pumpkin resting on the table, hole uppermost, I bent over and pressed my head against the opening. At first I got jammed just above my eyes and then, as I went on with my task, unwilling to quit, my nose briefly prevented entry. Finally I managed to put my whole head into it, like a cork(软木塞) forced into a bottle. I was able to straighten up with the huge pumpkin resting on my shoulders. My excitement was short­lived. The pumpkin was heavy. “I'm going to set it down, now，” I said, and with Jason helping to support its weight, I bent back over the table to give it somewhere to rest. It was only when I tried to remove my head that I realized getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in. When I pulled hard, my nose got in the way. I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle, but it was no use. “I can't get it out！” I shouted, my voice sounding unnaturally loud in the enclosed space. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 One possible version： I was stuck for five or six minutes though it felt much longer. _______ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ Trapped in the pumpkin, I gulped for air, my throat dry and face burning up. It was a torment(折磨) for me. I wrestled with(全力解决) the problem, attempting to squeeze my head out of it, but in vain. So frightened was I that I pulled, and banged the pumpkin frantically. Noticing my mounting fear, Jason proposed calling the fire ___________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _________ department, while others roared with laughter which made my blood boil. In great agony, I let out a loud cry which awakened my dad upstairs. Down dashed my dad who got me to push my head farther into the pumpkin so that my mom's hand could reach in and loosen my ponytail(马尾辫). My head was finally released and it was then that I realized my mom had been filming the whole time. That video was posted online the day before ___________________ ______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ Halloween.When I logged in my Facebook I found myself dumbfounded(惊呆的) by the abundant likes(大量的点赞) I received from those who had seen my video. Browsing their messages, I felt a wave of warmth. The nasty(令人不愉快的) dilemma where I got the pulp­plugged(堵满果肉) nose, the sore chin by the stubborn pumpkin was melted in the positive responses, the heartfelt comfort as well as the countless _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ ____________ similar stories shared by those strangers.Thanks to my mom, the video turned out to be a reminder, a captured memorable moment, a recollection of festival happiness, colored by hearty human interactions. 感谢聆听，再见！ $$
