He was very naughty. Sometimes he chased the swans and when he caught them, he pulled their feathers off. The swans were all very afraid of him. One day Nils was studying at home when suddenly he fell asleep. When he woke up, he saw in the mirror—a tiny Nils! He had become only a little thumb toy figure! But once he opened the door, he found all of swans circling around them. They chased him. They pinched (掐) him and laughed and said, “Now it is time for you to fear us!” Then the wild swans flew in and saw their ancestors and said, “Hey, come on! Let us all go to beautiful Switzerland!” A male swan named Max heard the wild swans, so he scooped up high into the sky. Nils found this good chance to experience new things, and held on tight to Max’s neck. They both flew high above into the sky. Nils was very scared, so he didn’t open his eyes at first. At last he got the courage to open his eyes and look down. He saw the white clouds high up the air, and saw the black earth under the ground. Max’s energy left him behind, so he fell behind the group. Max flapped his wings quickly and quickly, but he still felt down and down. Nils was very worried, so at first he said, “Don’t worry, Max. You rest for a while and let’s go home!” Max liked his comfort, so he quickly caught up with the group. The leader of the swans whose name was Oscar saw Nils and asked him, “Who are you?” Nils stood up and said: “My name is Nils. I was a human yesterday, but this morning…” Before Nils could finish his words, all the wild swans took a few steps back. Humans had been the swan’s enemy for centuries! No matter how hard Max tried to let Oscar agree to let Nils stay with them, Oscar still agreed to just let him stay with them for one night. When they all slept snugly that night, a fox crept out behind a tree. He had kept his eyes on the wild swans for a while, and still thought of their delicious meat even as they slept. Oscar sensed this and told all the swans to get up and fly away to a safer place. But Max left too quickly and dropped Nils down on the ground. Nils did not get hurt, but he did see the fox carrying the swan between his jaws. Nils shouted to him, “Hey, put the swan down!” He quickly grabbed the fox’s tail and pinched it with all his strength. This move allowed the fox to scream and so dropped the swan out of his mouth. Oscar said to Nils, “You are the first person to do good to a swan. So you can stay with us for the rest of the journey.” 29. What happened to Nils after he woke up? A. He became a member of the swans. B. He lost his little thumb as a tiny boy. C. He had wings and joined the journey of the swans. D. He became smaller, the same size as a little thumb. 30. Why did the swans say “Now it is time for you to fear us!” ? A. Because they were in groups and circling around Nils. B. Because they hated Nils and wanted to punish him now. C. Because they became brave and were not afraid of Nils any more. D. Because Nils was smaller than before and they could make fun of him now. 31. In which order did swans change their feelings towards Nils? ① Oscar thanked Nils for his kindness. ② Max took Nils to the sky though tired. ③ Oscar thought of humans as the swans’ enemy. ④ Nils pulled swans’ feather off and made swans afraid. ⑤ Nils comforted Max and saved the swan from the fox. A. ④③②⑤① B. ③②④⑤① C. ④③⑤①② D. ③④②①⑤ 32. Which of the following word is NOT part of Nils’ personality according to this story? A. Naughty. B. Humorous. C. Kind. D. Curious. C When considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn’t have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening. Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected. Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown. Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoy food is more difficult — you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging. Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out. 33. You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________. A. buy expensive shoes B. order a delicious meal C. talk with friends for new ideas D. sit quietly in front of a television 34. What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage? A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure. B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand. C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones. D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment. 35. The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________. A. attention B. interest C. ability D. knowledge 36. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth B. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth C. a worthy life depends on luck and environment D. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life D Mandarin (普通话) Connects My Children to Their Heritage Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants (移民), I was used to straddling (横跨) two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side lost ground, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin. I felt that they should be able to speak the language of their grandparents, the first language their mother met. Parenting books advised narrating your actions while with your baby, so I started digging out long-buried words: “ball,” “eat,” “sleep,” “play.” However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more obvious. One morning, when my daughter asked “What is the word for ‘arm’?” I panicked. Had I already reached the boundaries of my knowledge? Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media—from books to television shows to music—is a much-needed tool to parents like me. The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked (贮藏量多的) Chinese section. The tale of the Monkey King immediately caught my daughter's imagination. When I see my son chat with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. My youngest child recited Li Bai’s “Thoughts on a Silent Night” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool last fall. For generations of Chinese children, it’s the first piece of literature they memorize. It’s trotted out (翻出) for all occasions. My son’s voice rang out with confidence and his arms s wept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder fell on my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson: verses that had been spoken by my father and my grandparents when they were students in China, and by countless boys and girls before that. 37. We can learn from the first paragraph that the author ________. A. was brought up in an all-English environment B. once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture C. was deeply attracted by Chinese culture when she was a child D. preferred Lunar New Year to any other festival 38. The underlined word panicked means “________”. A. happy B. anxious C. excited D. surprised 39. According to the article, how did the author teach her children Mandarin? By sending them to a Chinese school in the Bay Area. By bringing them to the local library to read Chinese books. By speaking the words of her actions in Mandarin while with them. By making use of Chinese language media, such as books, television shows and music. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 40. According to the article, when she realized that her children were very interested in Chinese culture, the author ________. A. felt reconnected to Chinese culture B. was full of hope for the inheritance (继承) of Chinese culture C. thought of her own experience of learning Chinese as a child D. felt that all her efforts to teach them Mandarin had been worth it 41. What’s the main idea of this article? A. Language plays an important role in passing down family traditions. B. Language and culture can connect people throughout time and space. C. Learning Chinese poems is a great way to deepen your knowledge of the Chines c language. D. Knowing the Chinese language will provide you with a better understanding of Chinese culture E 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many have heard of shark fin soup.

Surrounded by miles of stone walls, the house and field provided ___47___ (end) hours of fun for a city kid like me. Since my ___48___ (one) visit to the farm, I had wanted to be allowed to climb the stone walls. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old ___49___ some stones were loose and falling.

Early one morning, Zengzi’s wife left for the market. Her little son wanted to go with her. But he was too young and the market was too far. Then she cheated（欺骗）her son and said, “I will soon be back. You stay at home and wait for me. If you do as I say, I will kill a pig and make a nice dish for you.” The child went back to the house happily. When Zengzi’s wife got back from the market, she showed no sign of killing a pig. So Zengzi himself prepared to do that, but his wife rushed to stop him and said, “Don’t do that. I just cheated the child.” “Honesty（诚实）is the most important thing,” Zengzi said. “Children are like blank（空白的）pieces of paper. They understand nothing but they can learn from their parents’ actions. Because you have cheated your son, he won’t trust you anymore. In the future he will cheat others.” Hearing her husband’s words, Zengzi’s wife regretted cheating the child. So she wanted to keep her word. She joined Zengzi in killing the pig, and cooked nice dishes for the child. While eating, the boy was happy and thankful to his parents. One evening, when the child went to bed, he suddenly got up and ran outside. Zengzi asked him where he was going. The boy replied, “I promised I was going to return a toy to a friend today. But I forgot, so I am going to return it now.” The couple exchanged（交换）satisfied smiles, and waited until the boy came back. 67.

Here are some great characters of that time. Shang Yang reformed many fields. Before the reform (改革，变法), he placed a log (原木) at the gate and promised, “If someone can move the log, he will get a reward.” No one believed him until someone moved the log and Shang really gave him the reward. Do you know Lu Ban lock? It is a removable toy. Lu Ban created it for his son. His son studied all night before opening it. He also invented many tools and weapons (武器). Once, an official fell unconscious (昏迷的). Everyone thought he was dead except Bian Que. Bian Que felt his weak pulse (脉搏) and said. “He will wake up in two days.” Two days later, the official woke up. Everyone was amazed. When Bo Ya played guqin, even the horses looked up, listened to his music and stopped eating. Bo Ya’s friend, Zhong Ziqi, understood his music. They liked each other. After Zhong died, Bo broke his guqin and never played such instruments any more. 26. Why did Shang Yang make a promise before the reform? A. To give people a reward. B. To make people believe him. C.

He went to school in winter, and looked after the farm animals when it was summer. He was very naughty. Sometimes he chased the swans and when he caught them, he pulled their feathers off. The swans were all very afraid of him. One day Nils was studying at home when suddenly he fell asleep. When he woke up, he saw in the mirror—a tiny Nils! He had become only a little thumb toy figure! But once he opened the door, he found all of swans circling around them. They chased him. They pinched (掐) him and laughed and said, “Now it is time for you to fear us!” Then the wild swans flew in and saw their ancestors and said, “Hey, come on! Let us all go to beautiful Switzerland!” A male swan named Max heard the wild swans, so he scooped up high into the sky. Nils found this good chance to experience new things, and held on tight to Max’s neck. They both flew high above into the sky. Nils was very scared, so he didn’t open his eyes at first. At last he got the courage to open his eyes and look down. He saw the white clouds high up the air, and saw the black earth under the ground. Max’s energy left him behind, so he fell behind the group. Max flapped his wings quickly and quickly, but he still felt down and down. Nils was very worried, so at first he said, “Don’t worry, Max. You rest for a while and let’s go home!” Max liked his comfort, so he quickly caught up with the group. The leader of the swans whose name was Oscar saw Nils and asked him, “Who are you?” Nils stood up and said: “My name is Nils. I was a human yesterday, but this morning…” Before Nils could finish his words, all the wild swans took a few steps back. Humans had been the swan’s enemy for centuries! No matter how hard Max tried to let Oscar agree to let Nils stay with them, Oscar still agreed to just let him stay with them for one night. When they all slept snugly that night, a fox crept out behind a tree. He had kept his eyes on the wild swans for a while, and still thought of their delicious meat even as they slept. Oscar sensed this and told all the swans to get up and fly away to a safer place. But Max left too quickly and dropped Nils down on the ground. Nils did not get hurt, but he did see the fox carrying the swan between his jaws. Nils shouted to him, “Hey, put the swan down!” He quickly grabbed the fox’s tail and pinched it with all his strength. This move allowed the fox to scream and so dropped the swan out of his mouth. Oscar said to Nils, “You are the first person to do good to a swan. So you can stay with us for the rest of the journey.” 29. What happened to Nils after he woke up? A. He became a member of the swans. B. He lost his little thumb as a tiny boy. C. He had wings and joined the journey of the swans. D. He became smaller, the same size as a little thumb. 30. Why did the swans say “Now it is time for you to fear us!” ? A. Because they were in groups and circling around Nils. B. Because they hated Nils and wanted to punish him now. C. Because they became brave and were not afraid of Nils any more. D. Because Nils was smaller than before and they could make fun of him now. 31. In which order did swans change their feelings towards Nils? ① Oscar thanked Nils for his kindness. ② Max took Nils to the sky though tired. ③ Oscar thought of humans as the swans’ enemy. ④ Nils pulled swans’ feather off and made swans afraid. ⑤ Nils comforted Max and saved the swan from the fox. A. ④③②⑤① B. ③②④⑤① C. ④③⑤①② D. ③④②①⑤ 32. Which of the following word is NOT part of Nils’ personality according to this story? A. Naughty. B. Humorous. C. Kind. D. Curious. 【答案】29. D 30. B 31. A 32. B 【解析】 【导语】本文节选自《尼尔斯骑鹅历险记》。一天，一个叫尼尔斯的淘气小男孩变成了拇指般大的人，为了体验新事物，他骑到了天鹅背上，跟着一群天鹅出发长途旅行；在旅行中，他从狐狸口中救了一只天鹅，因此天鹅答应让他一起旅行。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段后两句“When he woke up, he saw in the mirror—a tiny Nils! He had become only a little thumb toy figure!”可知当尼尔斯醒来的时候，发现自己变小了，和小拇指一样大。故选D。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据前文“They chased him. They pinched (掐) him and laughed…”和第一段中“He was very naughty. Sometimes he chased the swans and when he caught them, he pulled their feathers off. The swans were all very afraid of him.”可知尼尔斯非常淘气，曾经拔天鹅的羽毛，天鹅很害怕、讨厌他，现在他变小了，天鹅追他、掐他，用类似的方法来惩罚尼尔斯。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段后两句“Sometimes he chased the swans and when he caught them, he pulled their feathers off. The swans were all very afraid of him.”可知尼尔斯把天鹅的羽毛拔下来，让天鹅很害怕他，这也让天鹅奥斯卡认为人类是它们的敌人，即先④后③；根据第五段中“A male swan named Max heard the wild swans, so he scooped up high into the sky. Nils found this good chance to experience new things, and held on tight to Max’s neck. They both flew high above into the sky.”可知尼尔斯抓着麦克斯的脖子飞到了天上，即②；根据第六段最后一句“Max liked his comfort, so he quickly caught up with the group.”和最后一段中“This move allowed the fox to scream and so dropped the swan out of his mouth.”可知尼尔斯看到麦克斯很累，就鼓励他，之后又救了一只天鹅，即⑤；再根据文章最后一句中奥斯卡的话“You are the first person to do good to a swan.”可知奥斯卡感谢尼尔斯救了天鹅，即①，所以故事发展顺序为④③②⑤①。故选A。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一句“Nils was a very naughty little boy.”可知尼尔斯很淘气；根据第五段中“Nils found this good chance to experience new things…”可知他想要体验新事物，说明他很好奇；根据最后一句中“You are the first person to do good to a swan.”可知他救了一只天鹅，说明他很善良，文中并未提到他是幽默的。故选B。 C When considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn’t have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening. Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected. Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown. Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoy food is more difficult — you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging. Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out. 33. You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________. A. buy expensive shoes B. order a delicious meal C. talk with friends for new ideas D. sit quietly in front of a television 34. What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage? A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure. B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand. C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones. D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment. 35. The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________. A. attention B. interest C. ability D. knowledge 36. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth B. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth C. a worthy life depends on luck and environment D. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life 【答案】33. C 34. D 35. A 36. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了快乐和享受的联系和对比。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had.”可知打一场能提高一个人能力的网球是令人愉快的，就像读一本从新的角度看待事物的书一样，就像进行一场能让我们表达自己不知道自己拥有的想法的谈话一样。由此推出当你和朋友谈论新想法时，你很可能会体验到乐趣。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different.”可知有些经历既能带来愉悦，又能带来享受。故选D。 【35题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention.”可知正如这个例子所表明的，我们可以在没有任何精神能量的情况下体验快乐，而享受只有在全神贯注的情况下才会发生。psychic energy与attention意思相近。故选A。 【36题详解】 观点态度题。根据“Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement.”以及“Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.”可知作者会赞成“感到快乐与得到成长是相辅相成的”这一观点。故选B。 D Mandarin (普通话) Connects My Children to Their Heritage Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants (移民), I was used to straddling (横跨) two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side lost ground, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin. I felt that they should be able to speak the language of their grandparents, the first language their mother met. Parenting books advised narrating your actions while with your baby, so I started digging out long-buried words: “ball,” “eat,” “sleep,” “play.” However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more obvious. One morning, when my daughter asked “What is the word for ‘arm’?” I panicked. Had I already reached the boundaries of my knowledge? Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media—from books to television shows to music—is a much-needed tool to parents like me. The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked (贮藏量多的) Chinese section. The tale of the Monkey King immediately caught my daughter's imagination. When I see my son chat with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. My youngest child recited Li Bai’s “Thoughts on a Silent Night” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool last fall. For generations of Chinese children, it’s the first piece of literature they memorize. It’s trotted out (翻出) for all occasions. My son’s voice rang out with confidence and his arms s wept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder fell on my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson: verses that had been spoken by my father and my grandparents when they were students in China, and by countless boys and girls before that. 37. We can learn from the first paragraph that the author ________. A. was brought up in an all-English environment B. once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture C. was deeply attracted by Chinese culture when she was a child D. preferred Lunar New Year to any other festival 38. The underlined word panicked means “________”. A. happy B. anxious C. excited D. surprised 39. According to the article, how did the author teach her children Mandarin? By sending them to a Chinese school in the Bay Area. By bringing them to the local library to read Chinese books. By speaking the words of her actions in Mandarin while with them. By making use of Chinese language media, such as books, television shows and music. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 40. According to the article, when she realized that her children were very interested in Chinese culture, the author ________. A. felt reconnected to Chinese culture B. was full of hope for the inheritance (继承) of Chinese culture C. thought of her own experience of learning Chinese as a child D. felt that all her efforts to teach them Mandarin had been worth it 41. What’s the main idea of this article? A. Language plays an important role in passing down family traditions. B. Language and culture can connect people throughout time and space. C. Learning Chinese poems is a great way to deepen your knowledge of the Chines c language. D. Knowing the Chinese language will provide you with a better understanding of Chinese culture 【答案】37. B 38. B 39. D 40. D 41. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者的孩子出生后，作者想让自己的孩子接触中国文化，通过教他们说普通话，让他们了解中国文化的故事。。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“But as I grew older, the Chinese side lost ground, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year, I didn’t feel connected to the culture.”可知，作者曾经丢失了她对中华文化的归属感，故选B。 【38题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“One morning, when my daughter asked ‘What is the word for ‘arm’ ?’”和“Had I already reached the boundaries of my knowledge?”可知，作者对女儿的提问感到焦虑，所以panicked应意为“焦虑”，与anxious同义，故选B。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked (贮藏量多的) Chinese section.”、“When I see my son chat with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent.”和“Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media—from books to television shows to music—is a much-needed tool to parents like me.”可知，作者教她的孩子普通话是利用中文媒体，如书籍、电视节目和音乐；通过带他们去当地图书馆阅读中文图书；在和孩子们一起的时候用普通话说出她行动的话语，故选D。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“When I see my son chat with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent.”可知，当她意识到她的孩子们对中国文化非常感兴趣时，作者觉得她教他们普通话的所有努力都是值得的，故选D。 【41题详解】 主旨大意题。全文的升华在最后一段。作者最小的孩子在向日葵节（或中秋表演）上朗诵了李白的《静夜思》。作者写道，无数代中国孩子都背诵过这首诗，当她父亲听到外孙嘴里念出当年自己、以及祖辈在中国上学时念过的熟悉诗句时，脸上露出了欣慰和惊奇。这首诗（语言与文化）跨越了地域（中国到美国）和时间（祖辈到孙辈），把三代人以及无数华人连接在了一起。因此 B 选项作为宏观主旨最为深刻和贴切。故选B。 E 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many have heard of shark fin soup.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了人们对鱼翅的喜爱导致了鲨鱼数量严重下降的情况，以及对整个生态系统的影响，同时环保组织也在呼吁政府立法来禁止鱼翅的买卖。 【42题详解】 根据“When people catch sharks, they cut off their fins and throw the sharks back into the ocean.”可知，此处介绍这种行为带来的不良后果，选项C“这不仅残忍，而且对环境有害”符合语境。故选C。 【43题详解】 根据“Sharks are at the top of the food chain in the ocean’s ecosystem.”可知，此处鲨鱼数量减少带来的影响，选项E“如果它们的数量下降得太低，就会给所有的海洋生物带来危险”符合语境。故选E。 【44题详解】 根据“The numbers of some kinds of sharks have fallen by over 90 percent in the last 20 to 30 years.”可知，选项G“但事实上，每年大约有7000万只鲨鱼被捕获并在这个行业中交易”符合语境，用于介绍鲨鱼数量减少的原因。故选G。 【45题详解】 根据“Environmental protection groups around the world, such as WildAid and the WWF, are teaching the public about ‘finning’.”可知，此处在说环境保护组织为保护鲨鱼做了哪些努力，选项F“他们甚至要求政府制定法律来禁止鱼翅的销售”符合语境。故选F。 【46题详解】 根据“So far, no scientific studies have shown that shark fins are good for health, so why eat them?”可知，此处是号召人类保护鲨鱼，选项A“帮助拯救鲨鱼”符合语境。故选A。 四、短文填空（10分） 根据短文内容，在横线上填上适当单词，使短文完整、通顺。 As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of stone walls, the house and field provided ___47___ (end) hours of fun for a city kid like me. Since my ___48___ (one) visit to the farm, I had wanted to be allowed to climb the stone walls. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old ___49___ some stones were loose and falling. However, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally 1 had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner. “I want to climb the stone walls,” I said. “No! You ___50___ (hurt) yourself!” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I ___51___ (stop) by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.” I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for ___52___ (he).” “Go,” he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and ___53___ half hours, I climbed those old walls — and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, ___54___ (smile), “you made this day a special day just by being yourself.

Early one morning, Zengzi’s wife left for the market. Her little son wanted to go with her. But he was too young and the market was too far. Then she cheated（欺骗）her son and said, “I will soon be back. You stay at home and wait for me. If you do as I say, I will kill a pig and make a nice dish for you.” The child went back to the house happily. When Zengzi’s wife got back from the market, she showed no sign of killing a pig. So Zengzi himself prepared to do that, but his wife rushed to stop him and said, “Don’t do that. I just cheated the child.” “Honesty（诚实）is the most important thing,” Zengzi said. “Children are like blank（空白的）pieces of paper. They understand nothing but they can learn from their parents’ actions. Because you have cheated your son, he won’t trust you anymore. In the future he will cheat others.” Hearing her husband’s words, Zengzi’s wife regretted cheating the child. So she wanted to keep her word. She joined Zengzi in killing the pig, and cooked nice dishes for the child. While eating, the boy was happy and thankful to his parents. One evening, when the child went to bed, he suddenly got up and ran outside. Zengzi asked him where he was going. The boy replied, “I promised I was going to return a toy to a friend today.
