Filled with originality and wit,his latest work James is a retelling of Mark Twain's classic Huckleberry Finn from the perspective(视角)of Jim.Jim,or James,.is the slave(奴隶) of Miss Watson,who decides to sell him and separate him from his family.So Jim decides to run away.He's soon found by Huckleberry,who has also run away from his violent father, and the two draw up a plan to save each other. Twain starts his story by explaining various dialects.Everett assumes that perhaps Twain was only familiar with the dialect and intelligence that the African American slaves showed to white people,as a way of protecting themselves from those who considered an educated slave dangerous.A character like Jim tends to pretend to be simple-minded to avoid suspicions )Everett gives him the depth and richness that Twain was not able to imagine. In an interview,Everett talks about his novel saying that"I hope that no one thinks that my novel is about slavery.There's a difference between writing a story about people who happen to be slaves and writing a story about slavery." 21.What is the text? A.A book review. B.Abiography. C.A research paper. D.An advertisement. 22.According to Everett,why does Jim present himself as simple-minded? A.To receive better education. B.To prove himself unintelligent. C.To protect himself from the whites. D.To get familiar with other slaves. 23.What do we know about Everett from the text? A.He regards James as a book on slavery. B.He borrows Mark Twain's character Jim blindly. C.He has been a household name for the past three decades. D.He renews Huckleberry Finn through an escaped slave's eye. B Growing up in rural()communities,I always had a love of the countryside,animals and nature.The books I read as a child often had animals at their heart-The Owl Who was Afraid of the Dark,Charlotte's Web Farming,however,was something I experienced later in life,in my teenage years.It's something I instantly connected with,and I feel fortunate that my children have been able to grow up helping out on the farm and spending lots of time with our livestock and pets. It's so important to get a connection with farming at an early stage.We all eat food,so being familiar with where it comes from and what goes into producing it is a natural thing.If a spark of interest can be ignited early,it can only be a good thing going forward.It's a joy to see the children's faces light up on school visits when they see the photos of animals on our family farm and watch the video of an egg hatching().Animals have a unique magic all of their own. Being around animals also teaches children what they can take with them into adulthood. It builds foundations of responsibility,kindness,as well as perseverance and problem solving. We work together as a family a lot on the farm,which builds a strong work ethic and a sense of teamwork-both fantastic life skills. I'm a firm believer that you don't know what you're going to love until you try it.My hope is that if children from non-rural backgrounds get a taste of what it's like on a farm,then they might discover something they love. 24.How does the author lead into the topic? A.By showing his desire to keep animals. B.By recommending his childhood reads. C.By sharing his own experience with nature. D.By comparing his farm life with his children's. 25.What does the underlined word"ignited"in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Awakened. B.Expressed. C.Weakened. D.Kept. 26.What role does an early contact with farming play in children's growth? A.A time killer. B.A character builder. C.A social connector. D.An emotional comforter. 27.Which statement does the author probably agree with? A.Well begun is half done. B.What pains us shapes us. C.Actions speak louder than words. D.Interest starts with practice. Anthropologist Daniel Miller has observed that an alien (visiting Earth might suppose that four-wheeled creatures rule the planet.These rulers,he points out,are"served by a host of slaves who walk on legs and spend their whole lives serving them."He meant this as a joke,but it mirrors American car culture to some extent.In the US,the costs of car dependency keep growing,far above the $12,000-per-year average expense of owning a new one. Coast-to-coast,the cars we drive cause about 16%of greenhouse gas emissions.They cause significant air pollution,which worsens heart disease rates.Motor vehicle accidents are a leading cause of death in people aged 1 to 44.Since 2010 the number of pedestrians ( killed by cars has increased to about 7,500 a year. American car culture is a choice that now comes at too high a cost,both for ourselves and for the environment.After a century of its central place in our lives,we need to rethink our world into one not so attached to cars. Solutions are obvious and right in front of us.Sidewalks and bike trails should receive the same priority (as roads in our cities,instead of being afterthoughts.Unreasonable demands by the Government that the public get back behind the wheel to offices need to stop. We can even provide discounts to bicyclists who take the train or subway.Another reality is that car parking is too cheap across much of the country,where different parking prices can change our plans from hopping in the car during rush hours to taking the subway instead. We need to end our car-centered way of life nationwide.Otherwise,those aliens will have made the right call on who serves who,the cars or the people 28.Why are aliens and slaves mentioned at the beginning? A.To compare aliens to slaves. B.To amuse readers with a joke. C.To warn readers of the coming danger. D.To illustrate humans'dependence on cars. 29.What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A.The great popularity of cars. B.The negative impact of cars. C.The environmental damage by cars. D.The high cost of owning cars. 30.Which measure might be taken according to the author? A.Promote walking and bicycling. B.Demand the public drive to work. C.Offer free train rides to bicyclists. D.Reduce parking fees in rush hours. 31.What is the text aimed at? A.Introducing American car culture. B.Recommending a replacement for cars. C.Encouraging a less car-dependent lifestyle. D.Explaining the phenomenon of car dependency. D Babies as young as four months old can make sense of how their bodies interact with the space around them,according to a new research from the University of Birmingham.The findings,published in Scientific Reports,throw new light on how self-awareness develops. In the first stage,experts from the Birmingham Baby Lab showed babies a ball on a screen moving towards them.When the ball was closest to them on the screen,the babies were presented with a 'touch'on their hands,while their brain activity was being measured.It was found that even in the first few months of life,before babies have even learned to reach for objects,the multisensory(多感官的)brain is wired up to make links between what babies see and what they feel.Dr Giulia Orioli,the study leader,said:"Since we know babies in the early stages of their development begin to show signs of this,it opens up questions about how much of these abilities are learned,or inborn." Then a ball on a screen was shown moving away from them in the second stage.The experts found that in babies aged eight months old when the touch on their hand followed the ball on the screen moving away from them,the babies'brain activity showed signs that they were amazed.The older babies'responses suggest that they had not expected the touch. Next,the researchers are planning to follow up this study with younger participants, hoping to be able to see if there are early signs of these"multisensory"abilities in newborn babies."It is a challenge working with newborns,"Dr Orioli concluded,"but we are starting to have some success working with this age group,and it is going to be fascinating to see if babies only a few days old have the foundations of a sense of their bodies in space.If so,it could be that we are looking at the origins of human consciousness." 32.What can we learn about Stage 1 of the research? A.Babies'multisensory abilities are learned. B.Babies learn to reach for objects earlier than expected C.Babies connect what they see and feel in the first few months. D.Babies'brain activity was measured when a ball touched them. 33.What is the babies'response in Stage 2 of the research? A.Surprise. B.Fear. C.Calmness. D.Annoyance. 34.How does Dr Orioli feel about the future of this research? A.Doubtful. B.Hopeful. C.Puzzled. D.Worried. 35.Which one is the best title for the text? A.Babies'Interaction with Balls Measured B.Origins of Human Consciousness Found C.Babies'Multisensory Brain Developed at Birth D.Young Babies Showing Signs of Self-awareness 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。 Summer-Ready The weather is starting to warm up now.36 However,if your patio (isn't currently tidy or stylish,the following advice will get it in tip-top shape in time for the summer. ●Prepare your patio.

Then something happened.It all began with a simple request from our eight-year-old daughter."Mommy,let's put up a Christmas tree at home." At first,we didn't pay too much attention to this request,for we had never put up a Christmas tree.But my daughter's repeated request made us go ahead with this first step: loaded with layers of clothing to fight the unfamiliar cold,we tasked ourselves with finding a tree for our daughter. When we finally selected our tree,we realized we didn't have a car big enough to get it home.Of course,we had not considered that.It was our first time.We had no choice but to carry it home.We had walked only a few steps when a gentleman in our neighborhood stopped his truck and offered us a ride home.Our first fricnd.

That night,we carefully wound the lights around the tree and excitedly held our breaths for the beauty of the first glow.Still,it looked like something was missing:small ornaments ()Where would we get them?One lady across the street had a breathtaking tree carefully placed in a window for all to see.Every night,I stood behind the curtain,spending unnatural amounts of time studying the bells and whistles in her tree. 注意： 1.续写词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One evening,seeing the lady clearing snow off her sidewalk,I made a decision.null
