A Mr. Pedersen is a Danish traveler who recently finished a trip around the world. But this wasn’t just any normal trip. Mr. Pedersen spent nearly 10 years visiting every country in the world—and he did it all without flying. In 2013, Mr. Pedersen read a passage about someone who had visited all the countries of the world. It made him realize he could set a record by doing the same thing, but without flying. He hoped that he could finish his trip in about four years, but the world had other plans. The first part of his trip was easy, but as he moved on, things began to get hard. Once in order to cross a large body of water, Mr. Pedersen had to be on a boat for days and felt sick, being tossed (颠簸) by strong waves during a storm. With a limited (有限的) budget (预算) , sometimes he was invited by local people into their homes. At other times he had to sleep outside. What’s worse, he once became seriously ill with a disease. But he also had many good experiences. Mr. Pedersen said that he didn’t give up the trip because of the help he got from people all over the world. “You might have to try 1000 closed doors,” he explained. “But there is always an open door somewhere. Never, ever give up.” In the last 10 years, he’s covered around 260, 000 miles-that means he can go around the earth about 10 times. Mr. Pedersen says he’s looking forward to some quiet time to think about his trip. After that, he plans to write a book and share what he learned in his trip around the world. 61. What made Mr. Pedersen start his trip? A. The dream of breaking a record. B. The encouragement of his family. C. A traveler’s experience from a passage. D. A promise to his friends. 62. What does the underlined sentence “the world had other plans.” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. he had other plans in his mind. B. he changed his plans hallway. C. he finished his trip just as he expected. D. he spent more than four years travelling. 63. Which of the following might be the challenges Mr. Pedersen met on the way? ① Seasickness ② A serious disease ③ Limited time ④ Food problem ⑤ Being short of money A. ①②③ B. ①②⑤ C. ①③④ D. / 64. In the last paragraph, some numbers are used to ________. A. answer a question B. introduce some information C. describe the picture D. draw a road map 65. Which could be the best title for the passage? A. Travel Without Flying B. Try Closed Doors Often C. Always on the Boat D. Never Too Old to Start 【答案】61. C 62. D 63. B 64. B 65. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了丹麦旅行家佩德森先生最近完成了一次不坐飞机的环球之旅的故事。 【61题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In 2013, Mr. Pedersen read a passage about someone who had visited all the countries of the world. It made him realize he could set a record by doing the same thing, but without flying.”可知，来自一篇文章中一个旅行者的经历让他开始了他的旅行。故选C。 【62题详解】 句子猜测题。根据第二段“He hoped that he could finish his trip in about four years, but the world had other plans. The first part of his trip was easy, but as he moved on, things began to get hard.”可知，他计划用四年时间完成他的旅行，旅行的第一部分很容易；但随着他继续前进，事情开始变得困难起来；据此可以推断，划线部分“the world had other plans”意为“花了比四年多的时间旅行”。故选D。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Once in order to cross a large body of water, Mr. Pedersen had to be on a boat for days and felt sick, being tossed by strong waves during a storm. With a limited budget, sometimes he was invited by local people into their homes. At other times he had to sleep outside. What’s worse, he once became seriously ill with a disease.”可知，佩德森先生遭遇了晕船、缺少经费和严重的疾病等挑战。故选B。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In the last 10 years, he’s covered around 260, 000 miles-that means he can go around the earth about 10 times.”可知，作者用这些数字介绍了一些信息。故选B。 【65题详解】 最佳标题题。综合全文可知，本文主要讲述了佩德森先生没有乘坐飞机进行全球旅行的故事；选项A“不坐飞机旅行”适合作为文章的标题。故选A。 B The consumption (消费) idea and lifestyle of the young people are quietly changing. There is a new idea called Reverse (反向的) Consumption. It means that people no longer blindly buy very expensive things, but pay more attention to the cost performance (性价比). As a result, they are more willing to buy what they really need and compare the prices before buying them. Reverse consumption actually encourages people not to waste. Compared with traditional consumption habits, it refuses to keep buying new goods, and pays more attention to the quality (品质) of them. This idea has already become popular among the young. ★ News such as “young people are not crazy about changing their mobile phones anymore”, “challenging 5-day within 27 yuan” and others have been on the front pages of newspapers. Why are young people changing their ideas and spending less on buying? One of the reasons is that people have a different understanding of quality life. They come to realize that money and goods do not bring true happiness. They start to care more about personal growth, spirit and the building of social relationships. As a result, they begin to focus more on their inner needs, which helps to achieve a more meaningful life. Young people are also caring more about the environment. Blind consumption may cause not only waste but also environmental pollution. So, they begin to play a part in protecting the environment through this new way of consumption. Instead of buying new things from traditional stores, many young people are turning to second-hand markets to find goods that can be reused or recycled. Reverse consumption influences (影响) the market and sellers in turn. The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well. One thing is for sure-goods with higher quality and lower prices win. 66. Which of the following is Reverse Consumption? A. Buying shoes more than you need. B. Buying bags you really need. C. Changing smart phones often. D. Choosing cheap bags only. 67. What leads to Reverse Consumption? A. Being tired of shopping. B. Being afraid to try new things. C. Believing in expensive things. D. Seeing the inner needs. 68. Which of the following can be best put in ★ ? A. And it has made a difference to their buying decisions. B. Because they can’t afford new goods. C. So they are on the way of blind consumption. D. Then they stop to live a hard life. 69. To win young people’s hearts, a company should ________. A. take environmental problems less seriously B. sell environment friendly goods C. offer beautiful goods in poor quality D. put more ads on TV 70. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards Reverse Consumption? A. He can’t understand it. B. He says yes to it. C. He is unsure about it. D. He is against it. 【答案】66. B 67. D 68. A 69. B 70. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了年轻人的反向消费观。 【66题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It means that people no longer blindly buy very expensive things, but pay more attention to the cost performance. As a result, they are more willing to buy what they really need and compare the prices before buying them.”可知，反向消费观意味着人们不再盲目地购买非常昂贵的东西，而是更加注重性价比，因此，他们更愿意买他们真正需要的东西，并在购买之前比较价格。故选B。 【67题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Why are young people changing their ideas and spending less on buying?...As a result, they begin to focus more on their inner needs, which helps to achieve a more meaningful life.”可知，反向消费观的形成原因是人们开始更多地关注自己的内心需求。故选D。 【68题详解】 推理判断题。根据“This idea has already become popular among the young.”“young people are not crazy about changing their mobile phones anymore”和“challenging 5-day within 27 yuan”可知，此处说的是反向消费观的具体影响，A项“这对他们的购买决定产生了影响。”符合语境。故选A。 【69题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Young people are also caring more about the environment.”和“The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well.”可知，现在的年轻人更加注重环保，而企业为了迎合消费者，会售卖环保制品。故选B。 【70题详解】 观点态度题。根据“Reverse consumption influences the market and sellers in turn. The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well. One thing is for sure-goods with higher quality and lower prices win.”可知，反向消费反过来影响市场和卖家，这些公司必须提高产品质量，提供更好的服务。此处说的是反向消费观的正面影响，因此作者对这种消费观是赞成的。故选B。 九、综合填空 (共10小题;每小题1分、满分10分) 阅读下面短文，根据上下文或括号内单词等提示，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 “If you feel unloved, go mountain climbing, after which you will be sore all over and won’t think about it anymore. “Recently, a self-made sign post at Yuelu Mountain in Changsha has caught ____71____ (people) attention.

Actually 80. that 【解析】 【导语】本文描述了长沙岳麓山上一个自制指示牌引起关注的事件，以及现在年轻人喜欢登山活动的一种趋势。 【71题详解】 句意：最近，长沙岳麓山的一个自制路标引起了人们的注意。由“caught”和“attention”可知，此空考查短语 catch one’s attention吸引某人的注意，故people要用名词所有格。故填people’s。 【72题详解】 句意：自从它在社交媒体上发布后，它就出名了。由“Since it was”可知，此句时态为现在完成时。“it”为第三人称单数。故填has become。 73题详解】 句意：许多人去爬山是为了看一看标志。由“Many people go to climb the mountain”可知此句不缺谓语，“go to climb the mountain”和“ have a look at the sign”存在目的关系。故填to have。 【74题详解】 句意：该标志也成为游客的必去之地。由于“tourist”是可数名词，其前无限定词时，应用复数。故填tourists。 【75题详解】 句意：现在许多年轻人喜欢在周末和假期组织徒步旅行团，或者找登山伙伴探索新的路线。由“weekends and holidays”可知，此空表达“在周末和假期的这段时间里”用on/during都可以。故填on/during。 【76题详解】 句意：岳麓山上的“心形步道”是年轻人挑战自我的热门场所。这是一个定语从句，从句“young people can challenge themselves.”句子结构完整，横线处作状语，由于“place”是地点，用where。故填where。 【77题详解】 句意：登上岳麓山顶大约需要30分钟。由“Climbing to the top of the Yuelu Mountain”可知，此句是动名词短语作主语，谓语动词用单数。故take应用三单形式。故填takes。 【78题详解】 句意：然而，“心形步道”要长得多。由于“much”修饰比较级，所以“long”要用比较级。故填longer。 【79题详解】 句意：几天前，一位28岁的年轻女士尝试了“心形步道”，她说：“事实上，攀登后我并没有感到全身酸痛。”由于横线处位于句首，且有逗号，可判断此空用副词修饰后面的句子，actual副词为actually，位于句首，首字母要大写。故填Actually。 【80题详解】 句意：但在攀登之前，她非常紧张，几乎放弃了。由“so nervous”和“she almost gave up.”可知，此空考查so...that...句型，表示如此……以至于……。故填that。 十、书面表达 (本题 20 分) 81. 假如你是一所国际学校的学生，学校将举办主题为“Reading Makes Us ____________”的读书分享活动。请你根据以下内容提示，用英语从你读书的频率，你最爱读的书以及读书的原因等方面完成一篇短文。 内容提示： How often do you read books?

A Mr. Pedersen is a Danish traveler who recently finished a trip around the world. But this wasn’t just any normal trip. Mr. Pedersen spent nearly 10 years visiting every country in the world—and he did it all without flying. In 2013, Mr. Pedersen read a passage about someone who had visited all the countries of the world. It made him realize he could set a record by doing the same thing, but without flying. He hoped that he could finish his trip in about four years, but the world had other plans. The first part of his trip was easy, but as he moved on, things began to get hard. Once in order to cross a large body of water, Mr. Pedersen had to be on a boat for days and felt sick, being tossed (颠簸) by strong waves during a storm. With a limited (有限的) budget (预算) , sometimes he was invited by local people into their homes. At other times he had to sleep outside. What’s worse, he once became seriously ill with a disease. But he also had many good experiences. Mr. Pedersen said that he didn’t give up the trip because of the help he got from people all over the world. “You might have to try 1000 closed doors,” he explained. “But there is always an open door somewhere. Never, ever give up.” In the last 10 years, he’s covered around 260, 000 miles-that means he can go around the earth about 10 times. Mr. Pedersen says he’s looking forward to some quiet time to think about his trip. After that, he plans to write a book and share what he learned in his trip around the world. 61. What made Mr. Pedersen start his trip? A. The dream of breaking a record. B. The encouragement of his family. C. A traveler’s experience from a passage. D. A promise to his friends. 62. What does the underlined sentence “the world had other plans.” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. he had other plans in his mind. B. he changed his plans hallway. C. he finished his trip just as he expected.

Always on the Boat D. Never Too Old to Start B The consumption (消费) idea and lifestyle of the young people are quietly changing. There is a new idea called Reverse (反向的) Consumption. It means that people no longer blindly buy very expensive things, but pay more attention to the cost performance (性价比). As a result, they are more willing to buy what they really need and compare the prices before buying them. Reverse consumption actually encourages people not to waste. Compared with traditional consumption habits, it refuses to keep buying new goods, and pays more attention to the quality (品质) of them. This idea has already become popular among the young. ★ News such as “young people are not crazy about changing their mobile phones anymore”, “challenging 5-day within 27 yuan” and others have been on the front pages of newspapers. Why are young people changing their ideas and spending less on buying? One of the reasons is that people have a different understanding of quality life. They come to realize that money and goods do not bring true happiness. They start to care more about personal growth, spirit and the building of social relationships. As a result, they begin to focus more on their inner needs, which helps to achieve a more meaningful life. Young people are also caring more about the environment. Blind consumption may cause not only waste but also environmental pollution. So, they begin to play a part in protecting the environment through this new way of consumption. Instead of buying new things from traditional stores, many young people are turning to second-hand markets to find goods that can be reused or recycled. Reverse consumption influences (影响) the market and sellers in turn. The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well. One thing is for sure-goods with higher quality and lower prices win. 66. Which of the following is Reverse Consumption? A. Buying shoes more than you need. B. Buying bags you really need. C. Changing smart phones often. D. Choosing cheap bags only. 67. What leads to Reverse Consumption? A. Being tired of shopping. B. Being afraid to try new things. C. Believing in expensive things. D. Seeing the inner needs. 68. Which of the following can be best put in ★ ? A. And it has made a difference to their buying decisions. B. Because they can’t afford new goods. C. So they are on the way of blind consumption. D. Then they stop to live a hard life. 69. To win young people’s hearts, a company should ________. A. take environmental problems less seriously B. sell environment friendly goods C. offer beautiful goods in poor quality D. put more ads on TV 70. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards Reverse Consumption? A. He can’t understand it. B. He says yes to it. C. He is unsure about it. D. He is against it. 九、综合填空 (共10小题;每小题1分、满分10分) 阅读下面短文，根据上下文或括号内单词等提示，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 “If you feel unloved, go mountain climbing, after which you will be sore all over and won’t think about it anymore. “Recently, a self-made sign post at Yuelu Mountain in Changsha has caught ____71____ (people) attention.
