A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It’s great first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business, from fashion to science, and the range of comment and special feature as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art theatre and music.
A newspaper is even greater for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text.
A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than the reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it also mean that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient (短暂的) value.
For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need and without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you change and apply the techniques of reading.
1.A modern newspaper is great for all the following EXCEPT its ________.
A.wide variety
B.similar style
C.speed in reporting news
D.popularity
2.According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the same newspaper is that ________.
A.people look through the news they are interested in
B.different people prefer different newspapers
C.people are rarely interested in the same kind of news
D.people have different views about what a good newspaper is
3.It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers ________.
A.apply reading techniques skillfully
B.jump from one newspaper to another
C.appreciate the variety of a newspaper
D.usually read a newspaper selectively
4.The author wrote the passage to ________.
A.advertise B.introduce
C.argue D.compare

Science fiction writers create imaginary worlds. 21 So it’s important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if you’re writing about human living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.
Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character can’t drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. 22 That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing underwater in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. 23
Part of your preparatory work for the novel is to map out its worlds in great detail. You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You don’t have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. 24 This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions before you start writing.
25 You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell and even taste what it’s like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they’re actually there.
A.The issue here is maintaining your readers’ trust.
B.Your characters must be based on imagination only.
C.When you are writing, remember to make it feel real.
D.Instead, you only need to follow the rules all the way.
E.The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway.
F.But you have to let readers know enough to understand what’s going on.
G.The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science.

Flash fiction is a name for short stories that are kept within a specific word or character limit, usually up to 1,500 words. 26 . It’s about finding clever ways to keep as much detail as possible about the plot, characters and setting but in the fewest words possible. Use these four top tips to help you write your own fascinating flash fiction.
● 27
When planning a flash fiction story you first need to decide what are the important parts of the story that the reader just cannot miss. This might be a few moments from the beginning, middle and end. Once you have these, then any extra detail can either be cut away or added in — if it makes the story better and the word limit allows.
●Develop characters using adverbs
Good flash fiction has well-developed characters who have personalities and faults. You can take out long descriptions of your characters and replace them with the occasional adverb to help the reader understand the characters’ movements and behaviour. Adverbs are words that describe verbs. 28 . Examples of adverbs include, “The prince stared angrily and marched awkwardly back to his horse.”
●Use clauses to add colour and detail
Clauses add detail to sentences without adding too many words. You could use a relative clause. 29 . For example, “The air, which smelt of oranges…” Be careful not to make sentences too long, though, and take out any clauses that don’t add anything to the story.
●Combine your sentences
30 . For example: Mary was upset she had school and took her shoes off. She slumped on the sofa and flicked on the TV. It was going to be a long day and she was nervous about meeting the new head teacher. This becomes: Mary slumped in front of the TV, took off her shoes and decided she was too nervous for school.
A.Plan carefully before writing
B.Give priority to word choice
C.Composing a flash fiction takes skill
D.Try doing this by picking a few things and putting them into a shorter sentence
E.Its functions differ from other words used in flash fiction in English
F.This is a section of a sentence starting with which, who, when, where, etc
G.Verbs are words that describe physical or mental actions and states of being

A.advertise B.introduce
C.argue D.compare
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.D 4.B
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了不同读者对报纸有着不同的需求,什么样的报纸才是优秀的报纸。
1.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers(一份好的现代报纸提供多样化的内容来吸引不同的读者)”可推断出一份好的报纸不包括“类似的风格”,故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据最后一段“For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper.(由于这些原因,没有两个人真正读同一份报纸:每个人所做的就是把当天的报纸放在一起,按照自己的选择和顺序,放好自己的报纸。)”可知,没有两个人真正读同一份报纸的原因是人们浏览他们感兴趣的新闻,故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段“For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper.(由于这些原因,没有两个人真正读同一份报纸:每个人所做的就是把当天的报纸放在一起,按照自己的选择和顺序,放好自己的报纸。)”可知,每个人在看报纸的时候都会按照自己的顺序跳跃着找自己感兴趣的部分,即报纸阅读者通常有选择地阅读报纸,故选D。

Science fiction writers create imaginary worlds. 21 So it’s important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if you’re writing about human living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.
Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character can’t drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. 22 That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing underwater in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. 23
Part of your preparatory work for the novel is to map out its worlds in great detail. You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You don’t have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. 24 This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions before you start writing.
25 You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell and even taste what it’s like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they’re actually there.
A.The issue here is maintaining your readers’ trust.
B.Your characters must be based on imagination only.
C.When you are writing, remember to make it feel real.
D.Instead, you only need to follow the rules all the way.
E.The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway.
F.But you have to let readers know enough to understand what’s going on.
G.The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science.
【答案】21.G 22.A 23.E 24.F 25.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章为科幻作家提供了关于科幻作品创作的注意事项。
21.前文“Science fiction writers create imaginary worlds. (科幻作家创造想象的世界。)”提到科幻作家的想象世界,后文“So it’s important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. (所以熟悉与你的创作相关的科学原理和发明是很重要的。)”指出熟悉科学原理和发明很重要,因此G项“The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science. (在你想象的世界中,事物的工作方式将基于实际的科学。)”符合语境,指出想象的世界也基于科学来运作,承上启下,其中的imaginary worlds在前文有同词复现,science与后文的scientific呼应。故选G。
22.前文“If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character can’t drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. (如果人类能够在第一章中在水下呼吸,那么你的角色就不能在第三章中淹死在游泳池中。)”以具体的例子说明科幻世界要遵循设定,后文“That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. (这意味着读者愿意假装和你在一起。)”进一步解释前一句的内容,与读者的信任相关,因此A项“The issue here is maintaining your readers’ trust. (这里的问题是如何维持读者的信任。)”符合语境,指出关键是维持读者的信任,承上启下,其中的maintaining your readers’ trust是后文That的指代对象,readers在后文有同词复现。故选A。
23.前文“If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing underwater in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. (如果你从一本普通的侦探小说开始,然后在第六章加入一个在水下呼吸的人,你会把读者从他们的想象中拉出来。)”举出具体的不遵循设定的写作情况,指出其负面影响,因此E项“The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway. (如果你中途改变规则,也会发生同样的事情。)”符合语境,举出中途改变规则的情况,和前文是并列关系,其中的The same thing指代前文的you will pull the readers out of their imagination。故选E。
24.前文“You don’t have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. (你不必在第一章就告诉你的读者所有的规则。)”提醒不必在开始就呈现所有规则,因此F项“But you have to let readers know enough to understand what’s going on. (但你必须让读者知道足够的信息,以便理解发生了什么。)”符合语境,提醒要给出足够的信息,和前文是转折关系。故选F。
25.根据后文“You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell and even taste what it’s like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they’re actually there. (你在邀请读者去参观一个新的世界。他们希望能够看到、听到、感觉到、闻到甚至品尝到它是什么样子的。无论你的小说是关于一个没有疾病的世界还是一个未被发现的星球,让你的读者觉得他们真的在那里。)”可知,本段主要建议科幻世界要让读者有身临其境的感觉,空处位于段首,应该与为读者创造真实的感觉相关,因此C项“When you are writing, remember to make it feel real. (当你在写作时,记得让它感觉真实。)”符合语境,契合后文内容。故选C。

Flash fiction is a name for short stories that are kept within a specific word or character limit, usually up to 1,500 words. 26 . It’s about finding clever ways to keep as much detail as possible about the plot, characters and setting but in the fewest words possible. Use these four top tips to help you write your own fascinating flash fiction.
● 27
When planning a flash fiction story you first need to decide what are the important parts of the story that the reader just cannot miss. This might be a few moments from the beginning, middle and end. Once you have these, then any extra detail can either be cut away or added in — if it makes the story better and the word limit allows.
●Develop characters using adverbs
Good flash fiction has well-developed characters who have personalities and faults. You can take out long descriptions of your characters and replace them with the occasional adverb to help the reader understand the characters’ movements and behaviour. Adverbs are words that describe verbs. 28 . Examples of adverbs include, “The prince stared angrily and marched awkwardly back to his horse.”
●Use clauses to add colour and detail
Clauses add detail to sentences without adding too many words. You could use a relative clause. 29 . For example, “The air, which smelt of oranges…” Be careful not to make sentences too long, though, and take out any clauses that don’t add anything to the story.
●Combine your sentences
30 . For example: Mary was upset she had school and took her shoes off. She slumped on the sofa and flicked on the TV. It was going to be a long day and she was nervous about meeting the new head teacher. This becomes: Mary slumped in front of the TV, took off her shoes and decided she was too nervous for school.
A.Plan carefully before writing
B.Give priority to word choice
C.Composing a flash fiction takes skill
D.Try doing this by picking a few things and putting them into a shorter sentence
E.Its functions differ from other words used in flash fiction in English
F.This is a section of a sentence starting with which, who, when, where, etc
G.Verbs are words that describe physical or mental actions and states of being
【答案】26.C 27.A 28.G 29.F 30.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了微型小说的四个写作技巧。
26.根据下文“It’s about finding clever ways to keep as much detail as possible about the plot, characters and setting but in the fewest words possible.(这是关于找到一种巧妙的方法,在尽可能少的文字中保留尽可能多的关于情节、人物和背景的细节)”可知,提到写微型小说的总体技巧是找到一种巧妙的方法。结合选项C项“写微型小说需要技巧”和下文意思紧密连接,从而引出下文,符合语境,故选C。
27.由该题为段落小标题可知,为总结该段内容。该段下文“When planning a flash fiction story you first need to decide what are the important parts of the story that the reader just cannot miss. This might be a few moments from the beginning, middle and end. Once you have these, then any extra detail can either be cut away or added in — if it makes the story better and the word limit allows.(在构思一个微型小说故事时,你首先需要确定故事中哪些重要的部分是读者不能错过的,这可能是从开头、中间到结尾的几个时刻。一旦你有了这些,那么任何额外的细节都可以被删减或添加——如果它能让故事变得更好,并且字数限制允许的话)”可知,主要讲的是写微型小说的技巧之一:规划。结合选项A选项“写作前仔细计划”意思一致,为总结该段内容。故选A。
28.根据上文“You can take out long descriptions of your characters and replace them with the occasional adverb to help the reader understand the characters’ movements and behaviour. Adverbs are words that describe verbs.(你可以去掉对人物的冗长描述,用偶尔的副词代替,帮助读者理解人物的动作和行为。副词是用来描述动词的词)”可知,讲的是副词修饰动词这一功能,由此可知,紧接着就应该介绍动词的功能。结合选项G项“动词是描述身体或精神活动和存在状态的词汇”符合此推断,上下文语意连贯,符合语境。故选G。
29.根据上文“Clauses add detail to sentences without adding too many words. You could use a relative clause.(分句在不添加太多单词的情况下为句子增添细节。你可以用关系从句)”可知,本句主要承接上文,就关系从句进行举例说明。故F选项“这是句子的一部分,以which, who, when, where等开头”符合语境,故选F。
30.根据该段标题“Combine your sentences(组合句子)”以及下文“For example: Mary was upset she had school and took her shoes off. She slumped on the sofa and flicked on the TV. It was going to be a long day and she was nervous about meeting the new head teacher. This becomes: Mary slumped in front of the TV, took off her shoes and decided she was too nervous for school.(例如:玛丽因为要上学而心烦意乱,于是把鞋子脱了。她瘫倒在沙发上,打开电视。这将是漫长的一天,她对见到新校长感到紧张。这就变成了;玛丽瘫坐在电视机前,脱下鞋子,觉得自己太紧张了,不适合上学)”可知,这一段落主要介绍了写微型小说之整合句子的技巧。结合选项D项“试着选择一些东西,把它们放在一个更短的句子里”就是在介绍如何整合句子,上下文紧密连接,符合语境。故选D。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是向读者介绍如何更好地理解和欣赏诗歌。
46.考查非谓语动词。句意:觉得诗难懂的读者往往在读诗时犹豫不决。句中is为谓语动词,设空处使用非谓语动词。be+形容词+to do为固定结构,意为“去做某事……”。故填to understand。
47.考查名词。句意:下面的步骤解释了如何更好地理解和欣赏诗歌。设空处使用名词作主语,step为可数名词,此处表示复数意义。故填steps。
48.考查介词。句意:首先,跟着你的耳朵走。建议你问“它听起来怎么样?”而不是“它是什么意思?”句中instead of为固定短语,意为“而不是”。故填of。
49.考查非谓语动词。句意:大声朗读,你会说出这首诗的发音。句中will say为谓语动词,设空处使用非谓语动词,此处you与read之间是主动关系,同时表示伴随,故使用现在分词形式作状语。同时该空置于句首,开头单词首字母大写。故填Reading。
50.考查状语从句。句意:问一些关于这首诗的基本问题,这样你就能在脑海中看到具体的形象。设空处构成的是so that的固定短语,引导状语从句,意为“为了……;以便于……”。故填that。
51.考查非谓语动词。句意:然后好好利用你所找到的环境来挖掘线索,让你更好地理解这首诗。句中have found为谓语动词,设空处使用非谓语动词,此处clues与give之间是主动关系,故使用现在分词作后置定语。故填giving。
52.考查形容词。句意:第三,只要有足够的耐心来解释一首诗的意思。设空处使用形容词作表语。故填patient。
53.考查动词时态。句意:有时要花一辈子的时间才能真正理解一首诗。设空处使用动词作谓语,句子表述客观事实,故使用一般现在时。句子的主语为it为第三人称单数。故填takes。
54.考查形容词。句意:不断揭示更深层次和以前未被认识到的含义的诗歌比那些容易理解的诗歌更有趣。句中than为比较级标志,设空处使用interesting的比较级作表语,此处表示“更有趣”用more interesting。故填more interesting。
55.考查代词。句意:最后,没有必要完全理解诗歌,去欣赏它。句中使用代词作主语,真正的主语为后面的to understand不定式,设空处应该使用形式主语it。故填it。

【答案】One possible version:
Poetry, the Invisible Painting
To me, poetry is like an invisible painting; it uses words to create vivid images and emotions in the reader’s mind. Unlike a painting on paper, poems come alive with the reader’s imagination. I love poetry for its ability to describe an image or certain feelings in just a few lines, leaving a lasting impact. It’s through poetry that I often find comfort and inspiration. One of my favorite forms is the cinquain, which consists of limited words but can convey a clear picture.
