I’m self-employed, which means I work for myself and I do what I love. We have a popular saying in America which goes, “Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” But I’m here to tell you that instead of focusing on doing what we love, I think we should focus on loving what we do. In my line of work, you hear a lot about talent, which is an idea we’ve mostly invented to give ourselves an excuse to be lazy. Here is why: If you see someone doing something really well, you would say it’s because they are talented. You think they are somehow special. You ignore the great amount of work they’ve done to get to where they are. Research has shown that talent is nothing without hard work. I choose to believe in hard work, but not so much in talent. There are no special people, just people who put in enough hard work until something special happens. I can promise you one thing: whatever you choose to do for a career, if you work hard at it, eventually, special things happen. They may not happen as quickly as you’d like them to, and they may turn out to be completely different from the special things you imagined at the beginning, but they will happen. 47.

It’s a five-day celebration that includes good food, fireworks, colored sand, special candles and lamps. In honor of Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth, people make special prayers on the first day to obtain blessings for welfare, success, and well-being. People welcome the goddess into their homes by decorating entrances with colourful lanterns and traditional designs. In addition, many people treat themselves to fine jewelry, praying for good fortune. Those who cannot afford so much, seek out cheap items such as clothes or household goods. The second day of the festival is called Kali Chaudas. For some, the day provides an opportunity to get rid of bad luck from homes and businesses. They decorate their homes with clay lamps and create design patterns called Rangoli on the floor using colored powder or sand. The third day is when the biggest celebrations occur, which begin early in the morning with a visit to a temple to seek the blessing of the goddess. As the sun sets, people light up their homes with small lamps and enjoy delicious traditional foods with their loved ones. The fourth day of the festival is celebrated in many different ways. Friends and relatives visit with gifts, sweets and best wishes for the season. And the final day of the festival is called Bhai Dooj. It honors the close bond between brothers and sisters and is observed with traditional ceremonies and more delicious food. For children in India, Diwali is similar to Christmas. They get an entire week off from school and are treated to gifts, new clothes, amazing food, and, in the past at least, a large number of fireworks. It is no wonder that the festival ranks high among the country’s favorite celebrations. 52. From the beginning of this passage, we know ________. A. the celebration of Diwali lasts a week B.

D. Get together with his brothers and sisters. 56. Which of the following may NOT be a reason for children’s love of Diwali? A. Having a week off. B. Getting Christmas gifts. C.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了印度的重要节日——排灯节。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“It’s a five-day celebration that includes good food, fireworks, colored sand, special candles and lamps. (这是一个为期五天的庆祝活动，包括美食、烟花、彩砂、特殊的蜡烛和灯。)”可知，排灯节庆祝活动持续五天。故选C。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In addition, many people treat themselves to fine jewelry, praying for good fortune. (此外，许多人还会购买精美的首饰，祈求好运。)”可知，人们在排灯节的第一天为了好运而庆祝。故选A。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“For some, the day provides an opportunity to get rid of bad luck from homes and businesses.

But I’m here to tell you that instead of focusing on doing what we love, I think we should focus on loving what we do. (英译汉) _______________________________________________________ 【答案】但我要告诉你们，与其专注于做自己喜欢的事情，我认为我们应该专注于爱自己所做的事情。 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句。分析句子结构可知，该句为包含四个宾语从句的主从复合句。But I’m here to tell you“但是我要告诉你”为第一个主句；that instead of focusing on doing what we love“与其专注于做自己喜欢的事情”为从句中的状语部分，且其中包含what引导的宾语从句；I think“我认为”，为第二个主句；we should focus on loving what we do “我们应该专注于爱我们所做的事情”为省略that的宾语从句，且其中包含what引导的宾语从句。故本句译为：但我要告诉你们，与其专注于做自己喜欢的事情，我认为我们应该专注于爱自己所做的事情。 58.

(英译汉) __________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】当太阳落山时，人们用小灯点亮他们的家，并和他们所爱的人一起享受美味的传统食物。 【解析】 【详解】考查as引导的时间状语从句和介词短语。分析句子结构可知，“As the sun sets”是时间状语从句，意为“当太阳落山时”；“people”是主语，意为“人们”；“light up”是谓语，意为“点亮”；“their homes”是宾语，意为“他们的家”；介词短语“with small lamps”是状语，意为“用小灯”；并列连词“and”意为“并且”；“enjoy”是并列谓语，意为“享受”；“delicious traditional foods”意为“美味的传统食物”；介词短语“with their loved ones”作状语，意为“和他们爱的人”。故本句译为：当太阳落山时，人们用小灯点亮他们的家，并和他们所爱的人一起享受美味的传统食物。 第七节 在本节中，你将读到一篇短文。根据所读内容，在短文后表格中的空格处填入一个恰当的词，并将答案写在答题卡上对应处。每空一词。 根据所读内容，在短文后表格中的空格处填入一个恰当的词，并将答案写在答题卡上对应处。每空一词。 There are a few ways to improve your concentration and recall skills. The first thing to do is make sure you get the information correct the first time. It is very difficult to obtain bad information, and then replace it with the correct information. Pay attention to the speaker carefully so that you get everything right the first time. Next, make sure that you understand what you are trying to remember. If you do not have any concept as to what something means, you are going to have a very difficult time recalling the information. If you do not understand something the first time, go over the information again until it is thoroughly understood. Also, being selective can help you recall information. Instead of trying to recall the entire conversation that you had with a business partner, concentrate on trying to remember the important points. The less information that you have to remember, the easier it will be to recall it at a later point. Concentrate on what is important, and try to test yourself as you move forward. If you are reading a book and want to remember the main theme of every page, test yourself at the end. This will let you know if you have fully understood the page. If you have trouble recalling the information, read it again. Finally, remember to write down everything that you have memorized. The second that you leave a meeting or classroom you may want to translate your memory onto paper. This way you can repeatedly study the information at a later date. Ways to Improve Concentration and Recall Skills Get the correct information the first time ·You need to get everything right the first time, because it is hard to ____59____ the bad information you get the first time with correct information. Understand what you try to remember ·You’ll find ____60____ difficult to recall the information if you don’t have any idea of what it means. Be selective ·It is easier to remember the important points _____61_____ to recall the entire conversation. Concentrate on what is important and test yourself ·When reading a book, concentrate on what is important and try to test yourself. Write down everything you’ve memorized ·____62____ study of something important requires you to write down everything you’ve memorized. 【答案】59. replace 60. it##it’s 61. than 62. Repeated 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种可以提高你注意力和记忆能力的方法。 【59题详解】 根据第二段中的“It is very difficult to obtain bad information, and then replace it with the correct information. (获得错误信息，然后再用正确信息取而代之是非常困难的。)”可知，此处应指很难用正确的信息来代替第一次得到的错误信息，replace“更换、替代”符合语境，不定式符号to后接动词原形。故填replace。 【60题详解】 根据第三段中的“If you do not have any concept as to what something means, you are going to have a very difficult time recalling the information. (如果你对某件事的含义没有任何概念，你就很难回忆起这些信息。)”可知，设空处应是表达“很难回忆起这些信息”，分析答题空前后可知，find后应用it作形式宾语，代替真正的宾语动词不定式to recall；find后也可接宾语从句，宾语从句中动词不定式to recall作主语，用it作形式主语，结构为“it’s+形容词+to do sth.”。故填it/it’s。 【61题详解】 根据第四段中的“Instead of trying to recall the entire conversation that you had with a business partner, concentrate on trying to remember the important points. (与其试图回忆与商业伙伴的整个谈话，不如集中精力记住重要的内容。)”可知，记住重要的要点比回忆整个对话要容易得多，结合空格前的形容词比较级easier可知，空处应填入连词than“比”，用以引出比较的第二部分。故填than。 【62题详解】 根据最后一段中的“This way you can repeatedly study the information at a later date. (这样，你以后就可以反复研究这些信息了。)”可知，反复研究重要的东西需要把记住的东西都写下来，此处应指“反复研究”，结合空格后的of可知，此处study“研究”为名词，原文中的repeatedly应变为形容词形式repeated“重复的”，作定语修饰名词。故填repeated。 63. 王华即将进入大学，以下是他给学弟学妹们的临别赠言： （1）作为一名学生，毫无疑问，学习是首要任务，会占去大部分时间和精力，但你们仍需适当参加课外活动，要在学习和活动之间取得平衡。 （2）确立一个目标。一旦有了明确的目标，你就会为此而奋斗。即使遇到困难也不放弃。最终，你一定会达成目标。 （3）在不久的将来，有的同学将进入大学，有的将步入社会。与人相处很重要。要学会分享你的观点，倾听他人的意见，还要互爱互助。这些有助于你适应新的环境，开启新的生活。 写作要求： （1）词数不少于80。 （2）鼓励紧扣主题的适当发挥。 （3）开头与结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 （4）本题在答题卡上对应处作答。 Dear fellow schoolmates, Before I leave school for university, I’d like to drop a few lines for you. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes to you all!

We have a popular saying in America which goes, “Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” But I’m here to tell you that instead of focusing on doing what we love, I think we should focus on loving what we do. In my line of work, you hear a lot about talent, which is an idea we’ve mostly invented to give ourselves an excuse to be lazy. Here is why: If you see someone doing something really well, you would say it’s because they are talented. You think they are somehow special. You ignore the great amount of work they’ve done to get to where they are. Research has shown that talent is nothing without hard work. I choose to believe in hard work, but not so much in talent. There are no special people, just people who put in enough hard work until something special happens. I can promise you one thing: whatever you choose to do for a career, if you work hard at it, eventually, special things happen. They may not happen as quickly as you’d like them to, and they may turn out to be completely different from the special things you imagined at the beginning, but they will happen. 47. What is true about the speaker? A. He studies film-making. B. He owns a magazine. C. He works for himself. D. He is employed by a company. 48. The speaker’s advice to the audience is ________. A. doing what they like best B. loving the work they do C making no excuses for failures D. following their natural instinct 49. The speaker believes in ________. A. hard work more than talent B. talent more than hard work C. neither hard work nor talent D. both hard work and talent 50. From the passage, we may think the speaker is ________. A. lazy B. hard-working C. special D. talented 51. According to the speaker, nothing special happens ________. A. without working hard B. without talent C. without doing what one loves D. without focusing on something special C In India, one of the most significant festivals is Diwali, which falls between October and November. It’s a five-day celebration that includes good food, fireworks, colored sand, special candles and lamps. In honor of Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth, people make special prayers on the first day to obtain blessings for welfare, success, and well-being. People welcome the goddess into their homes by decorating entrances with colourful lanterns and traditional designs. In addition, many people treat themselves to fine jewelry, praying for good fortune. Those who cannot afford so much, seek out cheap items such as clothes or household goods. The second day of the festival is called Kali Chaudas. For some, the day provides an opportunity to get rid of bad luck from homes and businesses. They decorate their homes with clay lamps and create design patterns called Rangoli on the floor using colored powder or sand. The third day is when the biggest celebrations occur, which begin early in the morning with a visit to a temple to seek the blessing of the goddess. As the sun sets, people light up their homes with small lamps and enjoy delicious traditional foods with their loved ones. The fourth day of the festival is celebrated in many different ways. Friends and relatives visit with gifts, sweets and best wishes for the season. And the final day of the festival is called Bhai Dooj. It honors the close bond between brothers and sisters and is observed with traditional ceremonies and more delicious food. For children in India, Diwali is similar to Christmas. They get an entire week off from school and are treated to gifts, new clothes, amazing food, and, in the past at least, a large number of fireworks. It is no wonder that the festival ranks high among the country’s favorite celebrations. 52. From the beginning of this passage, we know ________. A. the celebration of Diwali lasts a week B.

What is a man likely to do on the last day of the festival? A. Exchange gifts and best wishes with his loved ones. B. Be busy decorating his home during the day. C. Light his home with small lamps. D. Get together with his brothers and sisters. 56. Which of the following may NOT be a reason for children’s love of Diwali? A. Having a week off. B. Getting Christmas gifts. C.

The first thing to do is make sure you get the information correct the first time. It is very difficult to obtain bad information, and then replace it with the correct information. Pay attention to the speaker carefully so that you get everything right the first time. Next, make sure that you understand what you are trying to remember. If you do not have any concept as to what something means, you are going to have a very difficult time recalling the information. If you do not understand something the first time, go over the information again until it is thoroughly understood. Also, being selective can help you recall information. Instead of trying to recall the entire conversation that you had with a business partner, concentrate on trying to remember the important points. The less information that you have to remember, the easier it will be to recall it at a later point. Concentrate on what is important, and try to test yourself as you move forward. If you are reading a book and want to remember the main theme of every page, test yourself at the end. This will let you know if you have fully understood the page. If you have trouble recalling the information, read it again. Finally, remember to write down everything that you have memorized. The second that you leave a meeting or classroom you may want to translate your memory onto paper. This way you can repeatedly study the information at a later date.
